TRANSACTIONS | Elks sign Forbes-Mombleau (WR)

The Edmonton Elks announced Monday, the signing of National Vincent Forbes-Mombleau (WR) to the practice roster.

Forbes-Mombleau, 23, was selected by the Montreal Alouettes in the third round, 24th overall, of the 2022 CFL Draft. ​ The Quebec native attended Alouettes training camp but was released on June 4. Collegiately, he spent four seasons (2018-21) at Laval, where he was voted the RSEQ rookie of the year in 2018 and registered 30 passes for 383 yards and one touchdown last season.

Additionally, Edmonton moved American running back Sherman Badie from the active roster to the practice roster. Badie has dressed for four games with the Elks this season, recording 109 yards on 26 carries and one touchdown.

The Elks return to practice today at The Brick Field at Commonwealth Stadium. Edmonton hosts the two-time defending Grey Cup champion Winnipeg Blue Bombers on Friday.
