Professional career
[edit]On May 8, 2023, Bonner signed with the Calgary Stampeders of the Canadian Football League (CFL).[6] He began the 2023 season on the practice roster, but was elevated to the active roster as the third string quarterback for the team's game against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on August 19, 2023.[6][7] He dressed in the final nine games of the season, but did not record any statistics.[7]
Upon the signing of Matthew Shiltz to serve as the primary backup, Bonner began the 2024 season as the fourth-string quarterback.[8] However, after Shiltz was moved to the injured list, Bonner began dressing in week 7.[7] He saw his first game action in a blowout loss to the Ottawa Redblacks where he completed four of eight pass attempts for 61 yards.[7] After incumbent starter, Jake Maier, struggled in the Labour Day Classic and the team had a 4–7 record, Bonner was named the starter for the rematch game against the Edmonton Elks on September 7, 2024.[9]
