One game into the 2024 season, and the CFL has a kicking controversy to deal with.
Winnipeg kicker Sergio Castillo took issue with the league’s chipped footballs Thursday night following the Bombers’ season-opening 27-12 home loss to the Montreal Alouettes.
Castillo missed two of the three field goals he attempted in the game (38 and 40 yards) along with a convert.
Last season, the 33-year-old made 46-of-51 field goals he attempted (club-record 90.2 per cent).
