Norzil was selected by the Toronto Argonauts in the fourth round (30th overall) of the 2015 CFL Canadian Draft. He attended training camp with the Argos and was released on June 20. He also spent time on the Saskatchewan Roughriders' practice roster this season.

He was limited to just one game for the Rouge et Or over the 2013 and 2014 seasons due to injuries.
