Welcome to the 3DownNation 2026 CFL free agency live blog!

We will be around all day to provide the latest news, insight, analysis, and rumours surrounding CFL free agency. We’ve done many live blogs in the past and we’re excited you’ve chosen to join us for this year’s edition. There’s lots of fun to be had over the day, so let’s get rocking.

The post 2026 CFL free agency: LIVE appeared first on 3DownNation.

The 27-year-old originally signed with the Baltimore Ravens after going unselected in the 2022 NFL Draft. He played two regular-season games as a rookie and made one start, completing 44.9 percent of his passes for 302 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. Brown was also sacked five times and lost one fumble.

The six-foot-one, 217-pound passer had a brief stint on Baltimore’s practice roster in 2023 but was otherwise out of the NFL. He spent 2024 with the Las Vegas Raiders, Buffalo Bills, and Arizona Cardinals, though he didn’t see any regular-season action with those teams.

The native of Aberdeen Township, N.J. signed with the Houston Roughnecks of the United Football League (UFL) in 2025 and made three starts, completing 48.2 percent of his passes for 241 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions. He also rushed for 61 yards.

Brown was a collegiate standout over six seasons at Boston College and the University of Oregon, completing 58.4 percent of his passes for 7,891 yards, 61 touchdowns, and 27 interceptions. He also ran 287 times for 1,121 yards and 15 scores.

The Alouettes have also signed American quarterback Dresser Winn and American linebacker Donovan Manuel to two-year contracts.

Winn played for the Memphis Showboats of the UFL earlier this year and completed 58.0 percent of his passes for 834 yards, three touchdowns, and four interceptions. He also rushed 13 times for 52 yards and one score.

The native of Dresden, Tenn. has since been a member of the Los Angeles Rams, though he was released by the team prior to the end of training camp in August.

The 26-year-old had his first of three stints with the Rams in 2023 after he went undrafted. He rejoined the team later that year following a stint on the practice roster with the Edmonton Elks, though he’s yet to dress for a regular-season NFL game.

The six-foot-three, 212-pound passer played collegiately the University of Tennessee at Martin where he was named second-team All-Conference in 2022. He threw for 5,800 yards, 37 touchdowns, and 24 touchdowns and ran for an additional nine scores.

Manuel played collegiately at Florida International University where he was named second-team All-Conference USA in 2023 after making 121 total tackles and 15.5 tackles for loss. The 26-year-old started his collegiate career at East Tennessee State, where he was named a third-team All-American in 2021.

The Montreal Alouettes finished second in the East Division standings in 2025 with a 10-8 record and beat the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the East Final before losing the 112th Grey Cup to the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Davis Alexander went 7-0 as a starter during the regular-season, though he missed 11 games due to a hamstring injury.

The Alouettes ranked eighth in net offence, first in net defence, and third with a turnover differential of plus-eight. The club’s leading rusher was Stevie Scott III with 418 yards, leading receiver was Tyler Snead with 1,129 yards, and leading tackler was Darnell Sankey with 103 tackles. Montreal finished sixth in attendance with average crowds of 21,132, which was a 0.8 percent decrease from the previous year.

“I pride myself on being versatile, being able to be flexible within the defence, playing wherever they need me in multiple positions,” Sutherland recently told the media.

“I’d like to go into it with an open eye and just get to sit down and talk with the coaches. Obviously, it’s a new game, so just to see schematically what makes sense. I know I’m capable of playing wherever they need me to.”

The five-foot-eleven, 202-pound defender recently signed a three-year contract with the Alouettes following a three-year stint in the NFL with the Seattle Seahawks, New York Giants, and Las Vegas Raiders. He never saw any regular-season action down south, though his tenure was marred by injury.

Montreal had one of the CFL’s top defences in 2025 and Sutherland could be a natural fit at safety or strong-side linebacker. Marc-Antoine Dequoy, the team’s incumbent starter at safety, recently retired, while Najee Murray, the team’s longtime strong-side linebacker, signed an extension for 2026 back in December.

Though he played mostly defensive back during his six-year collegiate career at Penn State University, Sutherland is roughly the same size as longtime Alouettes weak-side linebacker Tyrice Beverette. The six-year veteran is one of the best defensive players in the league — he earned All-CFL honours for a second-straight season in 2025 — but it’s not impossible to think Sutherland could replace him if he misses time due to injury.

Like most rookie CFL players, it stands to reason Sutherland will also be asked to play special teams as well, something he seems excited about.

“I like to pride myself on just playing fast, being decisive,” said Sutherland. “Playing physical with an edge and trying to get the ball back to the offence.”

“I’ve always taken pride in special teams, whether it was from high school, college, to playing in the league. I’m just trying to do whatever I can to help this team win, so whatever the coaches feel like, whatever position that’s going to best-suit the team, I’m all for it. Special teams? I love special teams.”

Sutherland was selected by the Alouettes in the first round of the 2023 CFL Draft and has kept close tabs on the team ever since. Des Holmes, his collegiate teammate with the Nittany Lions, spent the 2025 season as a reserve offensive lineman in Montreal and was able to provide Sutherland with updates from the inside.

Danny Maciocia, the team’s general manager, also remained in close contact with Sutherland throughout his tenure in the NFL.

“Danny and I have always been in constant communication ever since he drafted me, that if things don’t transpire and things don’t work out in the NFL, that I’d always have a home to come back to and play,” said Sutherland. “After much thought and prayer and consulting with my family, I just felt like it was the best decision for me to make right now at this point in my career.”

Though born in Ottawa, Ont., Sutherland has close ties to Montreal. His mother was born in the city, which is still home to plenty of his extended family. It seems like a perfect fit not only for Sutherland but also the Alouettes.

“I’ve been playing this game since I was eight years old and it’s blessed me a lot. I’m very grateful to be able to play still and I’m just excited to get out there,” said Sutherland. “It’s great to come back and play in my home country and just to play football again, so I’m really appreciative and I’m really excited to get the ball rolling.”

The Montreal Alouettes finished second in the East Division standings in 2025 with a 10-8 record and beat the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the East Final before losing the 112th Grey Cup to the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Davis Alexander went 7-0 as a starter during the regular-season, though he missed 11 games due to a hamstring injury.

The Alouettes ranked eighth in net offence, first in net defence, and third with a turnover differential of plus-eight. The club’s leading rusher was Stevie Scott III with 418 yards, leading receiver was Tyler Snead with 1,129 yards, and leading tackler was Darnell Sankey with 103 tackles. Montreal finished sixth in attendance with average crowds of 21,132, which was a 0.8 percent decrease from the previous year.

The post Jonathan Sutherland believes he can play multiple positions with Montreal Alouettes appeared first on 3DownNation.

“I still feel maybe a little bit of scar tissue, but as far as results and data we’re seeing, it’s pretty much 100 percent,” Alexander told the media in Montreal. “I actually threw for the first time, picked up a ball for the first time since Grey Cup (on January 29), and that was fun. I felt fine, I feel good — I was able to roll out and all that stuff.”

“As far as fully coming back 100 percent, we all feel really confident about it. (Calgary receiver) Jalen Philpot, he tore his (hamstring) completely off the bone, I think, a couple years ago, and obviously, he was able to come back off that, and he looks fantastic. Mine’s not as severe as that, so we feel optimistic. Again, I play quarterback; I don’t play receiver. I know I do like to run a little bit, but we feel optimistic, and we’re on the right track.”

Alexander was recently flown to Montreal so the team could get an update on his recovery, and it seems as though all parties are pleased with the progress.

The 27-year-old was surprisingly transparent about the injury leading into the Grey Cup, suggesting it may have been caused in part by overtraining during the previous offseason. It seems as though Montreal’s medical staff has since confirmed that, though it’s possible the injury could have been even worse had Alexander not trained as hard as he did.

“I was always the guy that tried to push through anything, but I never really had a soft tissue-type injury like this, so I learned my lesson there,” he said. “I was told, basically, I might have overworked it and overworked in general, but because of that, they think that’s why I didn’t completely tear it off the bone, so there’s some good to it and some bad to it.”

Alexander indicated he currently weighs 212 pounds, which he’s happy with as he wants to be between 210 and 215 when the regular season starts. He indicated he reached 220 pounds at one point in 2025, which he felt was too heavy and may have added undue stress on the soft tissue in his hamstring.

The native of Gig Harbor, Wash., trains with longtime CFL quarterback Chris Streveler in the offseason and is thrilled to be getting back into the swing of things. Though some people would welcome the opportunity to spend weeks on end sitting on the couch, Alexander wasn’t a fan of being off his feet.

“It was horrible, I hated it. All the people around me, I was complaining a lot. It’s not in my nature (to sit around the house),” he said.

“I like to always do stuff, be active, or else I’m gonna be on the couch watching sports or playing video games, so it’s been great to get back into it, be around competitiveness. The trainers back home, I love them to death, they’re such good guys, and being in a highly competitive environment often.”

The Alouettes have been relatively quiet during the CFL’s legal tampering period, signing returner DeVonte Dedmon following his release from the Ottawa Redblacks and agreeing to terms with quarterback Dustin Crum and receiver Jerreth Sterns. The most costly loss is defensive back Marc-Antoine Dequoy, who chose to retire after five seasons with the team.

With minimal change heading into 2026, Alexander will be looking to replicate much of the success he had one year ago but do so for a full 18 regular-season games.

The post Montreal Alouettes’ QB Davis Alexander updates hamstring injury that plagued him most of 2025 appeared first on 3DownNation.

“(Mack)’s done so much for this organization. He came in in 2023, I think he started fourth on the depth chart and he just kind of put the whole league on notice. Obviously, he was super clutch in the playoffs, super clutch in the Grey Cup, but we’ve been around the game long enough — it is a business. I’m super happy for him that he was able to reconnect with Cody, I’m sure Cody’s fired up about that,” Alexander told the media in Montreal.

“He got released and he found his next-best spot — or maybe he felt his best spot — super quick, so I’m happy for him and I’m sure he’s going to light it up there with Cody.”

Mack was released late last month ahead of a $45,000 offseason roster bonus, which was due on February 1. The move came following an injury-plagued season, which saw the 28-year-old dress for 12 regular-season games and make 48 catches for 674 yards and two touchdowns. He made two grabs for 21 yards in the East Final but was held off the stat sheet in the Grey Cup as the Alouettes fell to Saskatchewan.

Alexander understood his team’s decision to release Mack, though he clearly still holds the receiver in high esteem. Nothing is guaranteed in professional football and the emerging quarterback is excited to see which of Montreal’s receivers is able to step up in 2026 with Mack no longer on the depth chart.

“It’s tough because players want stability and some people want to be in a spot for a long time, especially if you have a family and stuff like that. I’m signed through 2028 now, but at the end of the day, I know that that’s not guaranteed. I’m not saying (the release) was performance-based on Mack, that’s an upstairs decision — a money thing would be my guess, that’s what it always is — but if I don’t perform, I know this contract could be swept under me just as well,” said Alexander.

“It is what it is, but we have a lot of pieces, a lot of great receivers coming back, and they seem to be pretty high on some rookies that are coming in as well. You look at a guy like Cole Spieker, he could absolutely thrive off this opportunity, and I think he’s going to thrive off this opportunity. That’s not to take anything away from Mack, but we’ve got to keep pushing, we’ve got to keep going.”

The Alouettes ranked seventh in passing in 2025, though that was due in part to Alexander missing 10 regular-season games with a hamstring injury. Tyler Snead led the team with 84 catches for 1,129 yards and four touchdowns and was rewarded with a contract extension through 2027. Tyson Philpot, who missed six games due to injury, received a massive contract extension after snagging 61 passes for 804 yards and five scores.

As for Mack, he’s now been reunited with Fajardo, who served as his quarterback in Montreal during a storybook season in 2023. Mack made 78 catches for 1,154 yards and four touchdowns as a CFL rookie that year, helping the Alouettes end a 12-year championship drought with an upset win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in Hamilton.

It remains to be seen if Mack and Fajardo will be able to rekindle that success in Edmonton, but one thing’s for sure — Alexander is confident they will.

The post Davis Alexander confident Austin Mack will ‘light it up’ with Cody Fajardo in Edmonton appeared first on 3DownNation.

The 50-year-old had his most recent CFL coaching stint with the Edmonton Elks, serving as their special teams coordinator in 2019. He later added the role of linebackers coach, though he stepped away from the team in 2021, citing personal reasons.

The native of Bellflower, Calif. played linebacker for Edmonton from 1998 to 2007, earning four All-CFL selections and helping the team win two Grey Cups.

Over 131 career regular-season CFL games, the six-foot-one, 200-pound defender made 440 defensive tackles, 92 special teams tackles, 22 tackles for loss, 13 pass knockdowns, 12 sacks, eight forced fumbles, 10 fumble returns, and three interceptions.

Gass served as a defensive assistant coach with Edmonton in 2008 and 2009. He most recently served as the special teams coordinator and linebackers coach of the Alberta Golden Bears. He also spent nine seasons as a high school head coach.

Greg Quick, who served as Montreal’s linebackers coach in 2025, was named the defensive coordinator of the Toronto Argonauts earlier this offseason.

The Alouettes also hired Domenico Manno as an offensive assistant coach.

The Bishop’s University product joined the team as an equipment assistant in 2021, then became the full-time equipment manager in 2022.

“It was important for us to bring back our staff and I’m happy that most of our coaches and football operations personnel are still with us,” said general manager Danny Maciocia in a statement. “We know how to work together as a group and I’m confident we’ll continue our success. We have a hard-working staff that’s all pulling in the same direction.”

Dave Brown, who joined the team’s coaching staff in 2024 after a five-year playing career, has been named the team’s offensive line coach after previously serving as an offensive line assistant. Luc Brodeur-Jourdain, the team’s longtime offensive line coach, stepped away from the team in December.

Dave Jackson has remained the team’s running backs coach, though he’s added the role of tight ends coach.

The rest of the team’s coaching staff has remained the same with one tweak: head coach Jason Maas has relinquished play-calling duties to offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Anthony Calvillo.

Montreal’s full coaching staff is as follows.

Jason Maas – Head Coach
Byron Archambault – Assistant Head Coach and Special Teams Coordinator
Anthony Calvillo – Offensive Coordinator and Quarterbacks Coach
Noel Thorpe – Defensive Coordinator and Defensive Backs Coach
Dave Brown – Offensive Line Coach
Michael Lionello – Receivers Coach and Pass Game Coordinator
Dave Jackson – Running Backs and Tight Ends Coach
A.J. Gass – Linebackers Coach
Corvey Irvin – Defensive Line Coach
Domenico Manno – Offensive Assistant
Bryan Wyllie – Defensive Assistant

The Montreal Alouettes finished second in the East Division standings in 2025 with a 10-8 record and beat the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the East Final before losing the 112th Grey Cup to the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Davis Alexander went 7-0 as a starter during the regular-season, though he missed 11 games due to a hamstring injury.

The Alouettes ranked eighth in net offence, first in net defence, and third with a turnover differential of plus-eight.

The 32-year-old has played receiver and fullback over five seasons with the Alouettes while also contributing on special teams. He caught a career-high 14 receptions for 80 yards in 2025 and made six special teams tackles.

The six-foot-one, 230-pound native of Zaire, who was raised in Montreal, has caught 23 passes for 189 yards and one touchdown and made 25 special teams tackles over 88 regular-season games.

Cibasu was a third-round pick in the 2018 CFL Draft by the Toronto Argonauts. He played collegiately at the Université de Montréal, winning a Vanier Cup in 2014.

The post Montreal Alouettes extend versatile Regis Cibasu appeared first on 3DownNation.

“When I received (Montreal’s first) contract (offer) in December, I had a voice inside of me that said, ‘No,’ and I didn’t know what that voice was. It took the whole process to understand what it was. When you search inside of you and you don’t know what you really want, sometimes you try to look for answers everywhere else. It just took all that time because it wasn’t really clear what was in front of me,” Dequoy told the media on Tuesday.

“I had an offer from another team, I had an offer from (general manager) Danny (Maciocia). … It was a good offer and I said with that offer, that’s what I wanted to do, I wanted to play (in Montreal). I talked with the coaches and everything went right in front of me for me to sign and I still had that voice inside of me that still didn’t know. I didn’t feel quite right about it, and that’s where that discussion (about retirement) happened.”

The six-foot-one, 195-pound defender was originally a second-round pick of the Alouettes in the 2020 CFL Draft, though he would have been taken higher had he not been under contract with the Green Bay Packers. He signed with Montreal in 2021 and quickly accomplished everything one could hope to achieve in the CFL.

Dequoy became a full-time starter in 2022 and recorded his first interception off Cody Fajardo in Week 3. One year later, Fajardo joined the Alouettes and led them to an unlikely Grey Cup victory over Winnipeg. Dequoy recorded a career-high 62 tackles, five interceptions, three forced fumbles, and two touchdowns that year, earning his first of two All-CFL selections. After the Grey Cup, he went viral for criticizing the league’s lack of bilingual representation at the event.

The Université de Montréal product appeared in his second Grey Cup this past November and though his team suffered a loss to the Roughriders, he was pleased to see the CFL do a much better job of embracing bilingualism in its branding.

A championship? Check. All-CFL honours? Check. A viral moment? Check.

Dequoy accomplished a lot in a short time, becoming a star in his home province.

It would have been perfectly understandable if he’d signed back with the Alouettes and finished his career with a few mediocre seasons. With nothing left to prove, Dequoy could have helped mentor the team’s other defensive backs, including recently-signed former first-round pick Jonathan Sutherland, while playing at a reduced yet decent level.

Instead, Dequoy chose to hang up his cleats, never wanting to be one to mail it in.

“I didn’t want to come in and just ride the wave and be that guy. As much as I would have loved selfishly to do it, I chose my respect for myself and for the game. Physically, I just couldn’t do it, and it cleared up when everything was set in front of me to succeed and just play football. I had a contract and everything, the answer was clear,” said Dequoy.

“I just realized at that point my body couldn’t do it enough. I couldn’t give 100 percent to that team. I have too much respect for my teammates, for the sport of football to sign a contract for 18 games if I knew that coming in May, I couldn’t physically play that season.”

It’s unclear what’s next for Dequoy, who has recently appeared on several French-language television shows including Sortez Moi D’Ici, Sous Écote, and Big Brother Célébrités. It seems possible that broadcasting could be in his future, though his agent indicated there are currently no plans for that.

Regardless, one thing is clear — Dequoy would rather step away from the game altogether than play it at a reduced level.

McGloster started 14 regular-season games for the Alouettes at right tackle in 2025, though he was benched in favour of rookie Tiger Shanks before the playoffs. He spent the last three seasons with Montreal, dressing for 26 regular-season games and helping the team win the Grey Cup in 2023.

The six-foot-seven, 305-pound native of Hillside, N.J. started his CFL career with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in 2019, though he was released relatively early that season. He then had stints with the Ottawa Redblacks and B.C. Lions, dressing for five regular-season games with the former in 2021.

McGloster has also had NFL stints with the San Francisco 49ers, Detroit Lions, Los Angeles Chargers, and Oakland Raiders.

Letcher Jr. was limited to nine regular-season games in 2025 due to injury and was scratched by the Montreal Alouettes for the 112th Grey Cup. He returned 39 punts for 428 yards, returned 19 kickoffs for 476 yards, and caught five passes for 42 yards and one touchdown.

The five-foot-seven, 180-pound speedster was Montreal’s nominee for Most Outstanding Special Teams Player in 2024 after recording 1,112 kickoff return yards and 924 punt return yards. He led the league in combined return yards and scored two touchdowns, one on a punt return and one on a missed field goal return.

The 26-year-old joined the Alouettes as a rookie in 2023 and played four games in place of an injured Chandler Worthy. He also recorded four receptions for 21 yards and three carries for 25 yards that year.

Letcher Jr. has reportedly agreed to terms on a contract with the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

The Montreal Alouettes finished second in the East Division standings in 2025 with a 10-8 record and beat the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the East Final before losing the 112th Grey Cup to the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Davis Alexander went 7-0 as a starter during the regular-season, though he missed 11 games due to a hamstring injury.

The Alouettes ranked eighth in net offence, first in net defence, and third with a turnover differential of plus-eight. The club’s leading rusher was Stevie Scott III with 418 yards, leading receiver was Tyler Snead with 1,129 yards, and leading tackler was Darnell Sankey with 103 tackles. Montreal finished sixth in attendance with average crowds of 21,132, which was a 0.8 percent decrease from the previous year.
