Experienced quarterback Nick Arbuckle is heading to the nation's capital.

The Ottawa Redblacks have traded their fourth-round selection in the 2023 Canadian Football League (CFL) draft to the Edmonton Elks, in exchange for the California-native, the team announced on July 11.

The trade gives the Redblacks some depth under centre after starting quarterback Jeremiah Masoli was injured in a 28-13 loss to Saskatchewan on Friday.

“We're pleased to be able to add Nick to our locker room at this point of the season,” said Redblacks general manager Shawn Burke. “He's an experienced player in our league and we look forward to having him on our side as a member of the RNation family.”
