The Senior Bowl practices kick off next Tuesday, and the rosters for the annual exhibition/scouting extravaganza are getting finalized. One recent addition at quarterback is a true international man of mystery.
His name is Taylor Elgersma, the quarterback of the Laurier Golden Hawks in the USports league, the Canadian edition of college football. Elgersma dominated that level, throwing for over 4,000 yards and 40 TDs last season and capturing their version of the Heisman Trophy. He earned the promotion to the Senior Bowl from his impressive work at other postseason games,
I thought he was the best QB at the East-West Bowl back in May, then he impressed at both the @CGSAllStar & @TropicalBowlUSA.
At 6’4 213 with a certified cannon, I’m excited to see if he can continue to impress in Mobile👀 https://t.co/4apItzWWSj

Having not seen Elgersma play yet, I’m very intrigued by what he can do in Mobile next week. It’s a major jump from the USports league, where the level of play is roughly commensurate with high-level D-III ball in the U.S., to playing with and against many players who project as first-rounders in the 2025 NFL Draft. He’s the first Canadian college QB to ever be invited to the Senior Bowl.
