HAMILTON – The Hamilton Tiger-Cats released the following statement from president of football operations Orlondo Steinauer providing an update on quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell on Monday.
“Bo Levi Mitchell underwent successful ankle surgery this morning and is in good spirits. We expect him to make a full recovery. His focus now turns to the rehabilitation process, which he will approach with the same drive he has shown throughout his career.
The support for Bo has been tremendous all around, especially from our incredible fanbase. We look forward to seeing Bo back on the field in Black and Gold.”
