Popp, who has been general manager since 1996, stepped into the head coach’s job mid-season when Tom Higgins was fired.
Team president Mark Weightman said the move was prompted by a need for continuity in the coaching staff.
The Alouettes ended the season 6-12 and missed the playoffs for the first time since 1996.
