Toronto, ON (Best E Casino) - Hamilton Tiger-Cats quarterback Quinton Porter and linebacker Cameron Siskowic highlighted the list for the top players in the CFL for Week 15. Porter was awarded offensive honors after a stellar 44-38 shootout win over Montreal, completing 27-of-32 passes for 429 yards and five touchdowns. His 158.3 rating was the highest possible score. He joins Richie Williams as the only Tiger-Cats to win the honor this season. Siskowic earned the defensive award by recording six tackles, one sack and a fumble recovery in the victory over the Alouettes. He was part of a defense which held Avon Cobourne to 10 yards on six carries. Edmonton kick/punt returner Tristan Jackson nabbed the special teams award, after returning eight punts for 101 yards, including a 67-yard return for a touchdown in a 36-22 triumph over Winnipeg. It was Jackson's third weekly honor already this year, after selections for Weeks 3-4.
