CP source: Montreal Alouettes sign veteran defensive back Ryan Phillips
MONTREAL — Ryan Phillips has found a new home with the Montreal Alouettes.
A CFL source said the veteran defensive back signed a one-year deal Tuesday with Montreal. Phillips, 34, was released last week after 12 seasons with the B.C. Lions.
The Alouettes didn’t immediately confirm the move but Phillips all but did in a tweet to Darian Durant, Montreal’s new starting quarterback.
“@dariandurant let’s have fun my brother. #21 #4 #MTL,” Phillips said on his official Twitter account.
