Ticats sign star quarterback Mitchell to extension through 2028

On Friday, the Hamilton Tiger-Cats signed quarterback Levi Mitchell to a two-year contract extension keeping the veteran in Hamilton through the 2028 season. The team announced the deal one day before hosting Ottawa in their season finale.
Mitchell, 36, is currently recovering from an ankle injury suffered July 5 in a game against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers that ended his 2026 season. Despite being sidelined, the quarterback stated he is "close to being fully recovered, recharged and excited about what's ahead."
The veteran quarterback has amassed 45,426 career passing yards—the eighth-highest total in CFL history—along with 271 touchdown passes. Before his injury, Mitchell recorded a 78.2 per cent completion rate with nine touchdowns and one interception over four games.
Ticats president of football operations Orlondo Steinauer said Mitchell "has earned the respect of everyone in our organization." The team has gone 3-10 since the injury and enters their finale out of the playoffs with a 5-12 record.
A two-time CFL Most Outstanding Player in 2016 and 2018, Mitchell also won Grey Cup rings in 2014 and 2018 while with the Calgary Stampeders. He remains committed to bringing another championship back to Hamilton.
