TORONTO – Quarterback Travis Lulay and receiver Nick Moore of the B.C. Lions and Toronto Argonauts returner Martese Jackson were named the CFL’s top performers of the week Tuesday.

Lulay relieved injured starter Jonathon Jennings and threw for a career-best 436 yards and three TDs on Saturday night in leading B.C. past the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 41-26, their third straight road win. Lulay’s performance was a CFL record for most passing yards coming off the bench.

Moore was Lulay’s favourite target, registering 10 catches for 220 yards and a touchdown.

Jackson accumulated 339 return yards (148 punt return, 191 kickoff return) and a touchdown in Toronto’s 33-25 road loss to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on Thursday night. Playing in just his second CFL game, Jackson also had a 105-yard kickoff return TD called back due to penalty.
