Cameron Dukes (born August 13, 1998) is an American professional football quarterback for the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League (CFL).

## College career

[edit]

Dukes played college football for the Lindsey Wilson Blue Raiders from 2017 to 2021.[1] He played in 49 games, starting in 45, where he threw for 10,439 yards and 114 touchdowns.[1] In the 2020–21 season, Dukes led the Blue Raiders to a national championship victory over the Northwestern Red Raiders.[1]

## Professional career

[edit]

### Vegas Knight Hawks

[edit]

Dukes signed with the Vegas Knight Hawks of the Indoor Football League (IFL) on May 17, 2022.[2][3] During the 2022 IFL season, which was the inaugural season for the Knight Hawks, he passed for 1,100 yards and 27 touchdowns in eight games.[4]

### Toronto Argonauts

[edit]

On March 9, 2023, Dukes signed with the Toronto Argonauts of the CFL.[5] During the 2023 CFL season, Dukes acted as a backup for starter Chad Kelly and as a short yardage quarterback sneak specialist, scoring his first CFL rushing touchdown on July 3, 2023, against the BC Lions.[6][7] Dukes saw his first action leading the Argonauts offence on August 4, 2023, taking over for an injured Kelly in a 20–7 loss to the Calgary Stampeders.[8] Dukes dressed in all 18 regular season games, starting in two, where he completed 63 of 96 pass attempts for 760 yards with two touchdown passes and three interceptions.[9] He also had 35 carries for 126 yards and eight touchdowns, primarily in short-yardage situations.[9] He also dressed in the East Final loss to the Montreal Alouettes where he had two carries for two yards and one touchdown on his post-season debut.[9]

On May 7, 2024, Kelly was suspended for at least nine games after an investigation into allegations made against him and the Argonauts by a former strength and conditioning coach.[10] Consequently, Dukes was elevated to the starting role for 2024 that he won during training camp.[11]
