Day two of #MarksCFLWeek is in full force and Jonathon Jennings is running the gauntlet of various media obligations and TSN photo shoots.
All the fun began at 8:45AM local time when he went to shoot .gifs for CFL social media. From there it was on to interviews with TSN, RDS and the CFL’s website content crew.
After lunch he was slated to strap on the pads and hit the field for TSN power poses and lots of fire! Teammates Chris Rainey, Jeremiah Johnson, Chris Williams, Manny Arceneaux, and Solomon Elimimian went through the motions yesterday.

As you can expect, having 60 or so players from around the league together at the same time means photobombing is a regular event! Especially from Odell Willis, one of the league’s most dynamic personalities. Did he call him Josh?!

During his mid-morning break, Jennings hit up the ADIDAS Players Lounge and took part in a little Madden. Willis, new Alouettes’ QB Darian Durant and his teammate Nik Lewis were among the other players hanging around before lunch.

After a meal and some more mingling, it was time to get in full gear! Just like his teammates the day before, Jennings was fired up- no pun intended- to take part in the TSN shoots.

Jonathon was definitely in game mode. It brought back memories of how excited he was to shoot teaser videos for the 2016 ADIDAS jersey launch.
Officially 🔥🔥’d up now

Last duty of the day for Jonathon: A live Facebook interview with CFL.ca’s Brodie Lawson. Not a bad day in the life of a CFL star QB!
