A total of 27 of those resumés will be named All-CFLers, rewarding the cream of the crop with league-wide recognition.

Here are eight Canadians knocking on the door of 2026 All-CFL presented by bet365 honours.

TYSON PHILPOT | MONTREAL ALOUETTES

But since my typing skills never get enough practice, I’ll run through the case here.

Tyson Philpot has already put together the most statistically spectacular season ever by a Canadian receiver, with records for yardage and receptions being set in Montreal’s Week 18 win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

The 26-year-old from Delta, BC is the runaway leader in receiving yardage in 2026, with 1,809 on 124 receptions (also first by a lot).

Philpot’s yardage total this year is the ninth-best ever recorded by a CFL receiver, and he is within striking distance of 2,000 yards, a feat that has been accomplished just three times before.

If he pulls in 228 yards worth of passes in his final two games, Philpot will set an all-time single season record, besting the 1994 mark of 2,036 set by Calgary receiver Allen Pitts.

Still not convinced (LOL)?

Philpot leads the league in yards after catch with 750 and is tied for the lead in receiving touchdowns with 13.

He’s twice been named a CFL Player of the Month and a Player of the Week six times.
