Adams has led the Lions to a 2-1 start and is coming off of an exceptional game last week. He threw for 398 yards on 21-33 passing, with two touchdowns in his team’s 26-24 win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
The 31-year-old leads the league in passing, with 1,038 yards and has six touchdowns to one interception. If Adams weren’t able to play, backup Jake Dolegala would assume starting duties.
The Lions host the Elks on Thursday night at BC Place. Fans can watch the game on TSN in Canada, while American and international viewers can find the game on CFL+.
