Oct 30, 2026 | 10:28 AM

TORONTO — Toronto Argonauts wide receiver Tyler Kahmann is the CFL’s Most Outstanding Rookie.

Kahmann became the sixth Argonaut to receive the honour Friday, and the first since cornerback Qwan’tez Stiggers — now with the NFL’s New York Jets — in 2023.

The 26-year-old from Haysville, Kans., registered 77 catches for 1,092 yards and eight touchdowns in his first season, helping Toronto (9-9) finish second in the East Division standings.

The Argos host the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the East semifinal on Saturday.

Kahmann earned 30 first-place, 11 second-place and three third-place votes out of 52 ballots from the Football Reporters of Canada.
