Gibson's Players of the Month for October 2011

As the CFL's 2011 season was winding down, the Gibson's panel was going over their options for the final month of the season.

The final four selections for the regular season brought forward some familiar names from the CFL statistics book this year, Quarterback Travis Lulay who has had a remarkable run in the final half of the 2011 season claimed the Offensive Player of the Month accolades for October.

He was joined by fellow BC Lion Paul McCallum, who was recognized once again for his special teams work in October, marking his second consecutive Player of the Month award,  matching his September efforts quite nicely.

The Argos who struggled quite a bit this season found some glimmers of good news for October, with Byron Parker's selection as the Defensive Player of the Month.

And it's another award winning month of Jerome Messam, the Edmonton Eskimo running back put the cap on a pretty impressive break out year with yet another nod as the Canadian of the Month, with his selection Messam bookends the CFL season, having first won the Player of the Month award in July.
