“Our general manager search is focused on…delivering championship football to our fans, supporting the success of our players and staff and giving back to the Montreal and greater Quebec communities.”
Popp did not attend the announcement.
“Jim’s leadership over the last 20-plus years has created a football legacy, delivering Montreal three Grey Cups and eight Easter Division titles during his tenure,” said owner Bob Wetenhall.
“We are grateful for his dedication and personal sacrifice to the Alouettes franchise.”
