Edmonton Elks News Release
(Edmonton) - The Edmonton Eskimo Football Club issues the following statement regarding pre-game timing during the last three road games.
We apologize for the team's on-field absence during the national anthem last Friday in Ottawa. It was not intentional and does not represent the tremendous respect the Edmonton Eskimo Football Club holds for the nation, the league and fans. The absence was the result of an internal miscommunication we have since corrected.
Going forward, the team will align with the protocol set out by the league as to not disrupt pre-game timing and game day operations.
