Khalil Tate signs with CFL’s Edmonton Elks

Khalil Tate is taking his talents north.

The former standout Arizona duel-threat quarterback has signed with the Canadian Football League’s Edmonton Elks.

The Elks plan to use Tate at quarterback, according to the team website and Tate’s announcement tweet.

Tate’s move to the CFL is unsurprising as the 23-year old tries to revitalize his pro football career after failing to make an NFL roster coming out of Arizona.

Tate signed with the Philadelphia Eagles in April 2020 as an unrestricted free agent and again in January 2021 on a reserves/futures contract.
