The CFL Players Association launched an appeal Friday night against the CFL for denying it access to the full independent report that resulted in the league suspending quarterback Chad Kelly for violating its gender-based violence policy.

Toronto Argonauts quarterback Chad Kelly passes the ball against the Montreal Alouettes during first half CFL Eastern Conference final football action in Toronto on Saturday, Nov.11, 2023. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Nathan DenetteArgonauts two pre-season games and at least nine regular-season contests.

"The CFLPA has filed an appeal to the CFL to obtain the full records and report of the CFL's investigation, as our previous requests have been denied," the union said in a statement. "Accountability and transparency are critical in these matters, and we have real concerns about the process and consistency applied during the CFL investigation.

On Thursday, Kelly was on the field during Toronto's rookie camp at the University of Guelph. He was not dressed in equipment and didn't practise. GM Mike Clemons told reporters Kelly's presence was within the conditions of the CFL's discipline. A league spokesman said Kelly was on the field at the Argos' discretion.

Clemons said Tuesday he wasn't aware of the allegations until they became public. Clemons added he never received a copy of the 87-page report and believed the Argos' legal representatives got an executive summary.
