The Edmonton Elks face an awkward QB tandem between McLeod Bethel-Thompson and Tre Ford. Ford's success in 2023 put him in the running for the starting job, but Bethel-Thompson's experience may give him the edge. Coach Chris Jones plans to use a 'double-barrelled' approach in practice to assess both players.
Despite the competition, Bethel-Thompson appreciates the opportunity to work with Ford and is eager to contribute to the team's success. Ford, on the other hand, values the chance to learn from Bethel-Thompson's expertise and improve his game. Both quarterbacks aim to make the most of this unique situation and bring their best to the field.
