2016 Hamilton Tiger-Cats season
The 2016 Hamilton Tiger-Cats season was the 59th season for the team in the Canadian Football League and their 67th overall. The Tiger-Cats finished in 2nd place in the East Division and finished with a 7–11 record. The Tiger-Cats qualified for the playoffs for the fourth straight season, including their fourth straight season hosting a playoff game, but lost in the East Semi-Final to the Edmonton Eskimos 24–21.
