Jalen Philpot wants to ‘get to 1,000’ in 2025

The 2025 CFL season saw the Calgary Stampeders missing out on playoff football for the first time since 2004, but the team knows they have what it takes to get back on track.

For 2025, it’s about progress, not perfection, but certainly getting as close as they can. It’s about embracing change, growing as a unit, and reminding themselves of why they step out on the field each week.

Receiver Reggie Begelton is part of that excellence in leadership that the Stamps want to instill. He was named to the All-CFL team for the third time in his career in 2024, starting all 18 games at slotback and finishing tied for second in the league with 92 receptions, and fifth in receiving yards with 1,150.

While his individual stats were impressive, he hopes to be able to create a place where wins matter, but so does chemistry and ensuring everyone is happy with the place they are at both on and off the field.

“I want to help build an atmosphere where every time we step in that building, it’s fun,” said Begelton in a conversation with CFL.ca. “At the end of the day, we are blessed to continue to play (football).”
