Montreal Alouettes CFL playoff contention

Overview

The Montreal Alouettes entered a matchup against the B.C. Lions with the opportunity to clinch a spot in the CFL playoffs and secure a home post-season game. Head coach Jason Maas noted the team’s focus on preparation following a loss to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, while quarterback Davis Alexander worked to manage calf and ankle injuries.

Following the matchup, the Alouettes officially became the first team to secure a playoff spot for the 2026 season after defeating the Lions 37-30 at Percival Molson Stadium. During the game, Alexander set a new CFL record with his 25th touchdown pass of the season. Receiver Tyler Snead contributed two touchdowns to the victory, which ended a five-game winning streak for the B.C. Lions.

Despite recording 375 yards and two touchdowns, Lions quarterback Nathan Rourke saw his team suffer three turnovers that contributed to the loss. The B.C. Lions are scheduled to host the Alouettes this Saturday at BC Place in an attempt to avenge the defeat.
