Hamilton quarterback Jeremiah Masoli, Saskatchewan receiver Naaman Roosevelt and Edmonton quarterback Mike Reilly have been named the CFL top performers of the week.

Masoli led the Ticats to a dramatic 25-point comeback win against defending Grey Cup champion Edmonton on Thursday. He broke a CFL record for most consecutive completions, stringing together 23 passes in a row as the Ticats Stunned the Eskimos 37-31 in Edmonton.

He completed 31-of-38 passes (81.6 per cent) for 391 yards and tossed three second-half touchdown passes.

On the other side of the field, Reilly extended his streak of passing for more than 350 yards per game but the Eskimos couldn’t stop Hamilton’s comeback.
