Playing career
He started his CFL career with the Edmonton Eskimos but was limited in playing time due to an achilles injury.[2] Following two years with the Eskimos, Mercy was released in January 2019 and signed a futures contract with the Philadelphia Eagles, but was cut before playing an NFL game.[2] Following injuries to Brandon Alexander and Marcus Rios, the Blue Bombers needed help in the secondary and signed Maston in August 2019.[2] Maston helped the Blue Bombers win the 107th Grey Cup, defeating the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 33-12. Following the win, he signed an extension with Winnipeg through to the end of the 2020 season.[3]
