Elks Dominate Redblacks with Rankin's Big Night | Calgary News

Edmonton Elks roar back to life with a 40-17 demolition of the winless Ottawa Redblacks, led by Justin Rankin’s explosive triple-threat performance and Cody Fajardo’s stellar passing. Rankin’s three touchdowns — including a clutch fourth-quarter run — and over 100 rushing yards turned the tide, while Fajardo tossed for 340 yards and two scores. The Elks now sit atop the West Division at 4-1, reviving playoff hopes after a six-year drought, while Ottawa remains winless at 0-5. Jake Maier’s four interceptions proved costly for Ottawa, as Edmonton’s defense capitalized to seal the victory. Next up: Elks host B.C. Lions, Redblacks face Winnipeg.
