Good opportunity for him. The start of the CFL season was pushed back to August so the BC Lions haven't opened their full camp yet. Probably won't until late June at the earliest.

This surprise was from Friday's NJ.Com coverage of Giants rookie camp:


There also was Nathan Rourke, an undrafted rookie listed at quarterback though he was practicing at tight end.


“We just want to get a look at them, work them in our system a little bit,” Judge said of the tryout players. “There’s the potential to add them to our team.”


- QB1 ... for camp: There was only one quarterback at practice on Friday: Clayton Thorson, who spent much of last season on the Giants practice squad. Rourke played quarterback at Ohio but wasn’t practicing at the position on Friday.


Thorson is the early favorite to be the Giants’ third QB/practice squad stash this season.

This makes much more sense. Giants have Rourke at wide receiver and not tight end!

I see he signed a 3 year contract with the BC Lions as a QB.

I have trouble understanding why the Ravens didnt take a strong look at Rourke. Designing an offense around QB Lamar Jackson, Rourke makes a ton of sense as a back up or practice player based on skill set.

But none of them have the “skill set” of Rourke, who obviously to some is similar to Lamar Jackson.
