Chad Kelly is still playing professional football. Sunday, the former Ole Miss quarterback was one of the heroes for the Toronto Argonauts in their 24-23 win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers for the Grey Cup, the CFL championship.

McLeod Bethel-Thompson was Toronto’s starting QB, but it was Kelly on the drive to take the late lead.

Kelly is still very much a dual-threat quarterback. He was 4-of-6 passing for 43 yards and also picked up key yards with his legs.

Toronto went ahead on a rushing score, but a Kelly pass set it up.

The Argonauts secured the victory with a blocked field goal.

Kelly returned, this time to lineup in victory formation.
