Toronto Argonauts running back Chad Kackert and kick returner Trent Guy were among this week's Gibson's Finest Players of the Week on Tuesday.

Kackert was named the Offensive Player of the Week after he carried the ball 13 times for a season-high 155 yards, including a 49 and a 5-yard touchdown run to help the Argonauts come back and defeat the Eskimos, 34-22.

Kackert leads the Argonauts with 358 rushing yards and has 16 receptions for 129 yards on the season.

Guy was named the Special Teams Player of the Week. He returned four kicks for 131 yards (32.8 average) including a 65-yard return late in the first quarter to set up Toronto in Edmonton territory.

Guy, a University of Louisville standout, holds school records for most kick-return yards in a season (914) and is tied with the longest kick-return (100 yards).

With the Argos this season, Guy has six returns for 173 yards (28.8 average) and has a reception for ten yards this season.

Bighill was named the Defensive Player of the Week, after recording 10 tackles, one sack, two forced fumbles, and a fumble return for a touchdown in the Lions big win over the Blue Bombers, 53-17.

The Central Washington University standout is fifth in the league in tackles with 67 and is tied for second on the Lions with five sacks on the season.
