Overview
- The Tiger-Cats announced Friday they signed veteran quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell to a two-year contract extension that keeps him in Hamilton through the 2028 season.
- Mitchell is recovering from an ankle injury suffered on July 5 that ended his 2026 campaign and he said in a team release that he is close to being fully recovered.
- Before the injury he completed 78.2 percent of his passes for 1,107 yards with nine touchdowns and one interception across four games.
- Hamilton went 3-10 after Mitchell’s injury and enters its season finale 5-12, and the team framed the extension as a move to preserve his on-field leadership while it rebuilds.
- The 36-year-old has 45,426 career passing yards, 271 touchdown passes and a 112-48-2 starting record, and president of football operations Orlondo Steinauer praised his influence in the locker room and community.
