Former Steeler Kameron Kelly Where are they now .

Kameron Kelly tried out with the Steelers a couple years ago and made some splash plays in the pre season as a safety.
He is now an OLB for the Hamilton Tiger Cats and yesterday he made two excellent interceptions in the Grey Cup Championship. Still making a splash.
I was hoping he would of stuck with the Steelers but now I can cheer for him on my home town team.

 

Related, I just saw Kelvin Beachem is still playing

 

He’s in commercial for a charity or something

 

Who? And by that I mean the Tiger Cats.

 

Not sure how big football is in Canada. I'm assuming Hockey #1 sport. Will the excitement in the city be similar to an NFL team winning the SB????????? Parades????????

 

Canadian Football is exciting to watch. bigger field, everyone can be in motion, small players with talent are as valuable as NFL players are and the guys that have trouble making practice squads have solid careers up there.

 

Nope he's on the Cardinals starting still.

They were raving about how he's the only player nominated for the man of the year award multiple times or something along those lines.

I thought you meant he was only in a commercial. My bad

 

CFL football is very different from NFL football. The single biggest difference is the size of the field 110 yds between the goal lines compared to 100 in the NFL. Doesn't sound like much until you take into account the end zone is 20 yds deep not ten and the field is 65 yd's wide compared to 50. Total area is 9750 sq yds compared to 6000 sq yds for an NFL field.
A player like Kameron Kelly a good sized safety becomes an outside linebacker , a 250lb LB would be gassed by halftime and a 340 lb nose tackle would be nothing more than an obstacle to run around.
The game is much more wide open with the larger field and only 3 downs not 4 .
Back in the 50's the two leagues were pretty even pay wise and players would move from one league to the other frequently.
When the big TV money came into the NFL the NFL exploded leaving the CFL in the dust.
