Edmonton Elks Extend GM Ed Hervey’s Contract After Worst-to-First Turnaround

Hervey will remain with Edmonton after leading a 13-5 turnaround and first-place finish in the CFL West Division, the team said.

  • On Friday, Oct 30, 2026, the Edmonton Elks signed vice-president of football operations and general manager Ed Hervey to a contract extension, keeping him with the club for the "foreseeable future."
  • The announcement comes two days after the Elks extended head coach Mark Kilam's contract through the 2029 season, aligning front office and coaching leadership for sustained success.
  • Since starting his second stint with the Edmonton Elks in Nov 2024, Hervey has guided the team to 13 victories and secured first place in the CFL's West Division this season.
  • The Elks will host their first home playoff game since 2015 next weekend, set to entertain either the Lions or Saskatchewan Roughriders in the West Division final.
  • Hervey holds an 81-81 career record as a CFL general manager; during his previous Edmonton tenure, he helped turn a struggling team into Grey Cup champions.
