It took only one pass, but Trevor Harris may have just wrestled the Ottawa RedBlacks starting quarterback job away from Henry Burris.

After the 41-year-old standout left Saturday's game versus the Edmonton Eskimos due to an apparent hand injury, the former Toronto Argonauts pivot wasted no time in making his presence felt, airing out a 71-yard touchdown to Chris Williams on his first pass attempt.

Just two plays after his career-long touchdown pass, Harris continued his incredible debut with another score. The 30-year-old's making it look easy for his new team, and one has to wonder if Burris will return to the starter role even if cleared from his injury.
