TORONTO - There was no sign of quarterbacks Chad Kelly and Nick Arbuckle at ɫɫÀ² Argonauts practice on Tuesday.
Kelly has yet to play this year after fracturing his right tibia and fibula in ɫɫÀ²’s 30-28 East Division final win over Montreal last year.Â
He was activated from the six-game injured list last Tuesday, where he also practised with the team. However, Kelly was placed back on the six-game injured list on Friday.

Meanwhile, Arbuckle, who has been the starter in Kelly’s absence, suffered a calf injury in Saturday’s win and was replaced by Jarret Doege.Â
Arbuckle leads the CFL in passing yards (4,089) and is second in passing touchdowns (25) and has led ɫɫÀ² to a 5-8 record. The Argos are riding a three-game winning streak and are just two points behind second-place Montreal in the East.
Doege, Tucker Horn and Max Duggan were the only QBs at practice Tuesday as the Argos get ready to face Montreal on Friday.
