CFL suspends Shawn Lemon indefinitely for betting on league games
The CFL suspended former defensive lineman Shawn Lemon indefinitely after an investigation found he bet on league games in 2021 while playing for the Calgary Stampeders. The league said there was no evidence that his wagers affected game outcomes or that anyone else on the team knew about the betting; the Montreal Alouettes also suspended him.
The suspension underscores the CFL’s response to player betting while noting the league found no evidence of affected outcomes or team awareness.
