Montreal Alouettes sign GM Danny Maciocia, head coach Jason Maas to extensions

Montreal's Montreal Alouettes have extended contracts with general manager Danny Maciocia and head coach Jason Maas for two-year terms. Maciocia's deal extends through the 2031 season, while Maas’s commitment runs until the 2030 campaign. Maciocia assumed the GM role in January 2020 and hired Maas as head coach in December 2022.

The Alouettes boast the CFL’s best record at 9-2, with Maciocia and Maas credited for their success. In a statement, Maciocia expressed pride in their progress and attributed it to the solid foundation built under his and Maas’s leadership. With one more win, Maas would tie Hall of Fame coach Marv Levy for fourth place in franchise history.

The Alouettes are set to host the B.C. Lions on Friday night. Additionally, they have signed American quarterback Caleb Evans to a one-year contract. Evans, a former Alouettes player, spent three seasons with the team before a season-ending knee injury cut short his '25 campaign.
