The Edmonton Elks are preparing for their 2024 CFL regular season debut on Saturday, marking the culmination of their 75th anniversary celebrations. Led by new starting quarterback McLeod Bethel-Thompson, the Elks aim to start the season strong against the Saskatchewan Roughriders. However, the team faces challenges with six players on the six-game injured list, including veteran receiver Kyran Moore, whose season may be over. Despite the injuries, head coach Chris Jones is confident in his depth and sees it as an opportunity for other players to step up.
