Reggie Begelton Honoured by CFL

August 20, 2019 - Canadian Football League (CFL)
Calgary Stampeders News Release

Calgary Stampeders receiver Reggie Begelton is one of the Canadian Football League's players of the week following his record-setting performance against the Montreal Alouettes at McMahon Stadium on Saturday.

Begelton tied a franchise record with four touchdown receptions in a single game, matching the mark set by Herm Harrison in 1970. He had a total of eight catches against Montreal and established a personal single-game best with 173 receiving yards. The bulk of the yardage came on two long catch-and-run touchdowns in the fourth quarter - a 56-yarder followed by a 69-yarder.

For the season, Begelton is among the CFL leaders in catches (third with 49), yards (third with 704) and touchdowns (tied for second with five). The 25-year-old Beaumont, Tex., native has already established personal season highs in all three categories.

Begelton is the third Calgary player to be honoured as a CFL player of the week so far this season.
