The Canadian Football League announced Wednesday that Hamilton Tiger-Cats quarterback Jeremiah Masoli has been named one of the CFL Top Performers of the Month for June.
Masoli, 29, leads the league in completions (75), pass attempts (tied – 106), completion percentage (70.8%) and passing yards (1,045), while registering four touchdowns and three interceptions, and adding 11 carries for 77 yards and one touchdown through Hamilton’s first three games of the season. The 5-10, 228-pound San Francisco, California native is currently on an eight-game streak of 300-plus passing yards, which is one game away from the CFL record of nine, set by Montreal’s Sam Etcheverry in 1956 and Saskatchewan’s Kent Austin in 1991. The University of Mississippi product was also named a CFL Top Performer of the Week for Weeks 2 and 3.
Edmonton’s Mike Reilly and D’Haquille Williams, first and third in voting, respectively, join Masoli as this month’s CFL Top Performers. The three players were chosen by a panel of judges who independently send their selections to the CFL head office. The panel includes former Canadian Football League players Matt Dunigan and Duane Forde of TSN and Pierre Vercheval of RDS.
