Nathan Rourke will soon become a Jacksonville Jaguar.
The 24-year-old Victoria native tweeted Sunday he'll be signing soon with Jacksonville, which was one of 12 teams he worked out for after finishing the '22 season with the B.C. Lions. The others included: Cleveland, the New York Giants, Kansas City, Cincinnati, L.A. Chargers, Las Vegas, Minnesota, Denver, Indianapolis, Tampa Bay and Arizona.
The Jaguars finished the regular season on a roll with five straight wins, including a 20-16 decision over the Tennessee Titans to secure the top spot in the AFC South. Rourke was bypassed in the 2021 NFL draft after his college career at Ohio. He then signed with B.C., which took Rourke in the second round of the '21 CFL draft.
Rourke returned for B.C.'s regular-season finale as the Lions finished second in the West. Rourke led B.C. past Calgary 30-16 in the division semifinal, completing 22-of-30 passes for 321 yard and two TDs. "It has been an absolute joy to play for my home province in front of so many friends and family," Rourke said. "I have thoroughly enjoyed my CFL experience, playing the game that I love in front of my fellow Canadians has been truly special.
