The first game was not pretty for former Oregon Ducks Quarterback Vernon Adams and the second preseason game did not start out better according to 247Sports.. Following an early fumble that went to Toronto and a Touchdown for the Argonauts, Adams regained his composure and threw his first CFL Touchdown for the Montreal Alouettes late in the game to seal the win.
For the game Adams went 3 for 4 with a 16 yard touchdown to BJ Cunningham in the back right corner of the end zone. It was his first touchdown in the CFL and a big moment for Adams as he continues to prove his critics wrong. He was given the fourth quarter to work and also showed off some solid footwork and escapabilty, similar to what he did with the Oregon Ducks last season when he threw for 26 touchdowns and over 2600 yards.
Vernon Adams has settled in with Montreal. As the team prepares for the 2016 season, the win over Toronto was their final warmup for the regular season, which begins next week. Montreal travels to Winnipeg next week on June 24th Their home opener is set for June 20th as they host Ottowa.
Adams led the Oregon Ducks to a 9-4 record in 2016, but undrafted and unsigned during the NFL Draft process.
