Heisman runner-up Duggan highlights CFL's negotiation lists
The CFL's nine teams released their winter negotiation lists on Wednesday, highlighted by a handful of high-profile names from the NCAA.
TCU quarterback Max Duggan was the runner-up for this year's Heisman Trophy behind USC pivot Caleb Williams and was added to the BC Lions negotiation list.
The senior threw for 3,321 yards with 30 touchdowns and four interceptions for the Horned Frogs, who had a perfect regular season before dropping the Big 12 Championship game to the Kansas State Wildcats earlier this month. No. 3 TCU are in the College Football Playoffs and will battle No. 2 Michigan in the Fiesta Bowl with a spot in the national championship on the line.
Other big names include Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr. and Oregon quarterback Bo Nix joining the Edmonton Elks' list.
Quarterback Jake Browning, who had an impressive year in college with Washington, and is currently a member of the Cincinnati Bengals, was added to the Calgary Stampeders' negotiation list.
Teams in the CFL can claim exclusive rights to up to 45 players by adding them to their negotiation lists and can add, remove or trade players from their lists at anytime.
CFL clubs must release negotiation lists in September and December every year.
