Bo Levi Mitchell has proven himself to be one of the best quarterbacks in the game, but another Calgary Stampeders pivot had a historic moment in the Grey Cup on Sunday.
Andrew Buckley recorded this 1-yard rushing score, becoming the first Canadian quarterback to record a touchdown in the Grey Cup in 48 years.
With that TD @buckley_hot8 becomes the first Canadian QB to score a #GreyCup TD in 48 years!!!

The moment for Buckley was bittersweet, though, as the Stamps couldn't pull off a comeback victory.
