The Montreal Alouettes re-signed Head Coach Jason Maas and General Manager Danny Maciocia to two-year contract extensions on Monday. The new deals will now run through the 2028 and 2029 seasons respectively.
Jason Maas was hired by Danny Maciocia in December of 2022. The 49-year-old from Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, has gone 33-19-1 in Montreal, which includes winning the 110th Grey Cup in 2023, and winning Coach of the Year in 2024, after leading the Alouettes to win the East Division. Overall, Maas’s coaching record is 72-52-1, which includes is four-year run with the Edmonton Eskimos from 2016 to 2019.
I can’t thank Mr. Péladeau enough for his continued belief in what we’re building,” said Maas.
“A commitment to excellence starts at the top of any organization, and our owner, Mr. Péladeau, is a great example of that. It’s been a pleasure working with Danny again. We have a clear understanding of each other’s expectations, and that’s played a big role in our success over the past few seasons. I’m proud of the culture we’ve built together, and I look forward to continuing our work together for the foreseeable future.”
Danny Maciocia returned as Montreal’s General Manager in January of 2020, following a nine-year run as Head Coach of the University of Montreal. Since returning to the General Manager role, the Alouettes have gone 49-35-1, including making the playoffs since 2021.
“I’m thankful for the continued stability that Mr. Pierre Karl Péladeau has brought to this organization. I’m also grateful that he continues to place his trust in Jason and me,” Maciocia said.
“I’m looking forward to continuing to build a winning culture within the Alouettes organization alongside Coach Maas. Jason and I have worked together for many years, and I’m thrilled that we’ll continue to do so. His leadership in the locker room has been crucial to our success. He holds himself, our players, and our coaches accountable every single day, and he’s a major reason why we’ve achieved the level of success we have since his arrival.”
The Montreal Alouettes (10-7) will wrap up the 2025 season on Saturday at the Winnipeg Blue Bombers (9-8). Kickoff is scheduled for 3 pm on CTV, TSN, and CFL+.
