The Montreal Alouettes have signed Canadian receiver Tyson Philpot to a two-year contract extension through 2025.

“Tyson fully deserves this vote of confidence. He is constantly improving and in his case, the best is yet to come,” said senior director football operations, player personnel Éric Deslauriers in a statement. “He has gained experience this year and even though he is only in his second pro season, he has never been afraid to take on more responsibility.”
