TRANSACTIONS | Phillip, Sandjong sign with Edmonton

Jordan Hoover also returns to active roster

EDMONTON – The Edmonton Elks have signed nationals Shaydon Phillip (DB) and Rossini Sandjong (DL).

The signings were announced Tuesday, with the players subsequently moved to the team's suspended list as they complete their required quarantine period.
