The Canadian Football League (CFL) unveiled the 2018 CFL All-Stars on Tuesday.
The All-Stars were selected by the Football Reporters of Canada (FRC) and the league’s head coaches.
This is the 56th year in which the CFL has named an All-Star team in recognition of the season’s best performers.
In total, 59 voters selected 27 All-Stars.
Of the 27 players selected, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, BC Lions and Hamilton Tiger-Cats have the greatest representation with five players each. Saskatchewan and Ottawa have four players apiece on the All-Star teams while the Grey Cup winning Calgary Stampeders only have three. The Edmonton Eskimos have one player while the Toronto Argonauts and Montreal Alouettes do not have a player on any of the teams.
