Armanti Edwards is used to the cold, having spent four winters in the North Carolina mountains while becoming the most decorated player in Appalachian State history.



But Canadian winters are different than Boone winters, and the stinging chill is not something you can prepare for, according to Edwards.



That said, Edwards loves Toronto, where he’s preparing for his fourth CFL season. He moved his wife and two children from Charlotte to Canada this year, and appreciates all the family-friendly activities available in Toronto — if not the cold.



It’s not the NFL and the exchange rate takes a bigger bite out of Edwards’ game checks, but the former Carolina Panthers third-round pick has resurrected his career and found happiness in football again north of the border.



“It’s been great. I’m having fun again. I wasn’t having too much fun when I first started my professional career,” Edwards said.
