The 39-year-old Hervey was most recently Edmonton’s assistant GM. He takes over for Eric Tillman, who was fired by the CFL club last month.
Hervey played eight seasons for the Eskimos, and was a CFL all-star in 2001 and 2003.
Tillman was fired before Edmonton played in last month’s East Division semi-final. The Eskimos lost to the eventual Grey Cup champion Toronto Argonauts.
