The B.C. Lions have signed former Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Chris Oladokun to their practice roster, marking a pivotal moment in his career. The announcement also included the signing of his brother, Jordan Oladokun, a defensive back.
Chris Oladokun, 29, played for the Chiefs from 2022 to 2025, serving as a backup to two-time NFL MVP Patrick Mahomes. During his tenure in Kansas City, he celebrated Super Bowl victories in both 2023 and 2024. Reflecting on his experience with the Chiefs, Oladokun described it as “some of the most fun I’ve ever had playing football,” emphasizing the valuable lessons learned from Mahomes and the team.
In Kansas City, Oladokun completed 35 of 55 pass attempts for a total of 235 yards and one touchdown without any interceptions. His opportunity to step into a starting role late last season reignited his passion for the game. Now in Vancouver, he looks forward to learning from Lions starter Nathan Rourke while sharing this unique experience with his brother at a professional level for the first time.
