Montreal Alouettes quarterback Davis Alexander cleared after preseason knee scare
During the Alouettes' first preseason matchup against the Ottawa Red & Black at Montreal's Percival Molson Memorial Stadium, the team fell 27‑12. Starting quarterback Davis Alexander left the field late in the first quarter after a knee impact. He underwent imaging that showed completely normal X‑rays, and he confirmed there was no serious injury, saying he would have stayed in the game under regular‑season conditions.
Alexander, who missed ten games in the 2025 season with a hamstring injury but later led the team to the Grey Cup, said he is fully recovered and expects to start in the season opener in Hamilton. The medical reassurance allows the Alouettes to count on him for the upcoming regular season.
