Offensive line coach Luc Brodeur-Jourdain has left the Montreal Alouettes.
The 42-year-old retired during the 2019 season and immediately became an assistant offensive line coach. The following year he was promoted to offensive line coach, a position he held for five seasons.
“On behalf of the Montreal Alouettes, I want to thank Luke for everything he has done both on the field and in the community,” general manager Danny Macciosia said in a statement. “He always showed a warm and engaging personality and we will miss his leadership, his good spirit and his love of football.”
Native of Saint-Hyacinthe, Que. played 168 regular season games in 11 seasons with the Alouettes, winning two Gray Cups. He was named All-East Division twice and All-CFL once. He later won a third Gray Cup in 2023 as a coach.
Brodeur-Jourdain was originally selected in the sixth round of the 2008 CFL draft out of Laval University, where he won three Vanier Cups.
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 Gray Cup to the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Davis Alexander went 7-0 in the regular season as a starter, although he missed 11 games with a hamstring injury.
The Alouettes ranked eighth in net offense, first in net defense and third with a plus-eight turnover margin. The club's leading rusher was Stevie Scott III with 418 yards, the leading receiver was Tyler Snead with 1,129 yards, and the leading tackler was Darnell Sankey with 103 tackles. Montreal ranked sixth in attendance with an average attendance of 21,132, down 0.8 percent from the previous year.
