2025: Blue Bombers

The Blue Bombers signed Novak on May 2, 2025 after selecting him the fifth round, 45th overall, in the 2025 CFL Draft. He made an immediate impression out of training camp, cracking the opening roster and opting to stay with the team rather than return to college.

Novak dressed for five regular games before suffering a season-ending knee injury in Toronto. He finished the year with three tackles on special teams.

College:

Novak played four seasons with the Huskies and in his senior year, he recorded 25 solo tackles, including two tackles for loss, one forced fumble, and one interception.

Novak was recognized as the Huskies Football Rookie of the Year in 2020 and earned U SPORTS Academic All-Canadian honours in the 2020–2021 academic year. He also contributed to Team Saskatchewan’s back-to-back Canada Cup championships in 2018 and 2019.
