Josh Love
Coming off bench in opener
Love is listed as the primary backup ahead of Friday's season opener against Winnipeg, per Calgary's official depth chart.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Love will serve as the primary backup to fellow quarterback Vernon Adams Jr. to start the 2026 season. Love started the final preseason game for the Stampeders and had a solid day, completing seven-of-eight pass attempts for 80 yards and a touchdown against Edmonton. While Love ceded playing time to fellow backups Ben Wooldridge and Jacolby Criswell during Friday's preseason finale, Love appears to have earned the second string job, at least for the moment.
