I expect Kelly to be reinstated in fairly short order.
My wife is amazing!

He's still on the roster... but no announcement from the league... with this week being a bye, have they delayed the announcement until next week?

From Farhan:

Chad Kelly is expected to meet with @CFL commissioner Randy Ambrose Friday morning. Following that I don't think it will be long before we hear the next steps. #Argos next practice is on Sunday.

It's a short week for the Argos who play again on the 22nd. If Kelly gets approval he might be allowed to practice but I can't see him starting in that short a time frame.

If he gets approved tomorrow, I think he will start on the 22nd.

Why not?? We ve seen dukes and arbuckle in action and they are hopeless. Even if he goes with a short playbook, he starts. Remember the grey cup when he came off the bench cold and beat us?? Same thing here

Ya, if he's able, Kelly will start the very next game.  Proof?  Rourke who has been out of the CFL 1.5 years is starting just a couple of days after signing!  The top-shelf QBs can just fly in and play the next day.  Besides, it's a sure thing Kelly has been following along with the playbook and film, etc.

@TSNDaveNaylor
Chad Kelly's meeting with @CFL commissioner Randy Ambrosie Friday did not produce a resolution to his seeking reinstatement. The league seeks to impose a "last chance agreement" as a condition of Kelly's return which his representative insists deprives him of rights under the CBA. Stay tuned.#CFL

Wooooooooooooooow.

This is pretty shocking. Do we think Kelly didn't meet some conditions or that the CFL is expecting backlash from reinstating him so are adding something else to the conditions?

Makes you wonder...was his arrogance in the whole thing sending off warning bells ??

Is this last chance thing a blindside to Kelly and his lawyers?

I did hear (from Naylor maybe?) that they'd be looking at Kelly's behaviour during this whole period, which would include his social media. And he's said a few things that had to be immediately deleted.

I think more of a lifeline than a blindside.

Sounds like his "rehab" didn't go to plan.

Not going to end well, VA should be shopping for apartments in Toronto.

When this Kelly thing first went down I looked into his history a bit. Without getting into specifics he has a history of somewhat bizarre behaviour that has lead to a lot of clubs, here and down South, passing on him even though he clearly has some athletic QB attributes. The league may be considering him more of a liability than they're willing to accept.
