EDMONTON — The Edmonton Elks have signed National offensive lineman Samuel Thomassin, the club announced Tuesday. ​

Thomassin returns to the Elks after finishing the 2022 season on Edmonton’s practice roster. The Quebec native signed with the Double E in October after his release from the Montreal Alouettes. The six-foot-six lineman broke into the CFL in 2021, appearing in two games with the Alouettes after being selected in the second round of the 2019 CFL draft.
