Tre Ford Aims to Secure Starting Role for Ticats Against Argonauts

Tre Ford is set to potentially secure a starting position with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats as they face the Toronto Argonauts this Saturday. Ford, who has alternated between starting and backup roles throughout his five seasons in the CFL, recently led the Ticats to a comeback victory over the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

In practice leading up to the game, Ford received starter's reps while Harrison Frost, who is dealing with a back injury, was limited. Ford previously guided the Ticats to a win against the Argonauts earlier this season, and his recent performance has positioned him as a key player in the upcoming match, which is crucial for playoff standings in the CFL East.

Ford's journey includes a first-round draft selection by the Edmonton Elks in 2022 and a notable college career where he won the Hec Crighton Trophy. His speed and ability to make plays outside the pocket have been highlighted by teammates, emphasizing his potential impact on the game. The Ticats aim to clinch the season series against the Argonauts with a victory this weekend.
