EDMONTON — It’s Sunday’s Grey Cup ring that he wants, but on Thursday Bo Levi Mitchell collected the biggest individual award in the CFL. For the second time in three years, the Calgary Stampeders quarterback was named the CFL’s Most Outstanding Player, capturing 47 out of 60 first-place votes. Masoli finished the year with more passing yards than Mitchell, but what pushed the Stamps star above the rest of the field couldn’t necessarily be captured on the stats sheet. Yes, Mitchell ended the season with the third most passing yards in the league, with 5,214. And yes, no one else in the CFL had as many touchdowns as the 35 that Mitchell threw.
