Montreal Alouettes sign veteran offensive lineman Olafioye to extension
MONTREAL — The Montreal Alouettes signed American offensive lineman Jovan Olafioye to a three-year contract extension through the 2019 season Tuesday.
Montreal acquired the six-foot-six, 325-pound Olafioye from the B.C. Lions last week.
The Alouettes also released veteran quarterback Jonathan Crompton.
Olafioye, 29, is a six-time CFL all-star and was the league’s top lineman in 2012. The seven-year veteran has made 126 straight starts.
