The 2025 CFL season is scheduled to be the 71st season of modern professional Canadian football. Officially, it would be the 67th season of the Canadian Football League. Winnipeg is scheduled to host the 112th Grey Cup on November 16, 2025.[1] [2] If the scheduling format from the previous season is implemented for this season, the regular season would start on or about June 5 and end on October 25.
According to the new collective bargaining agreement, the 2025 salary cap will be set at or above $5,650,000.[3] [4] [5] Including non-football related services of $110,000, the total salary expenditure cap will be at or above $5,760,000.[3] This will be the second season that players will receive revenue sharing, which will be set at 26% this season.[4] The minimum player salary will be set at $70,000, which remains unchanged since 2023.[4] [5]
On October 26, 2024, the league announced Randy Ambrosie's intention to retire following the 2024 CFL season.[6] Ambrosie agreed to remain as commissioner, likely until sometime in 2025, until a successor has been named.[6]
The 2025 free agency period will officially begin on Tuesday, February 11, 2025, at 12:00 p.m. ET.[7] Pending free agents and teams are able to negotiate offers for one week starting Sunday, February 2, 2025, and ending Sunday, February 9, 2025.[8] All formal offers to a player during this time are sent to both the league and the players union and cannot be rescinded.[9]
The CFL will continue to be broadcast on TSN and RDS across all platforms in Canada as part of their current contract.[10] The broadcast rights are reported to have been extended through 2025.[11]
