The veteran quarterback signed a three-year deal with the Toronto Argonauts on Thursday, according to a CFL source. Nichols, who was released by Winnipeg last week, becomes the third quarterback on the Argos’ roster, joining sophomore Canadian Michael O’Conner and McLeod Bethel-Thompson, who started 13 games for Toronto last season. Nichols became expendable after the Grey Cup-champion Blue Bombers signed quarterback Zach Collaros to a two-year contract extension. Despite his record, Bethel-Thompson led the CFL in touchdown passes (26) and 300-yard games (nine) and was third in yards (4,024).
