GM Kavis Reed has announced major changes in their roster with the release of six players and the addition of four others. The additions have very limited professional experience.

Linebackers Brandon Calver and Robbie Meade, running back Josh Robinson and receiver Jack Bramswig are the new additions.With the exception of Shologan, who is 32, all the other five players cut are 27 or younger, so this does not help reduce the average age of the team which had 21 players 30 or older last year when the next oldest team had only 12 players 30 or older. This is still an aged team more susceptible to injury as the season wears on and with many players with declining skills due to age. Not a great formula for success for a team that finished last.
The team has released offensive linemen Vincent Brown and Jeremy Lewis, defensive tackle Keith Shologan, fullback Nate O’Halloran, receiver Alex Carroll and special teams member Chad Bushley.
Meade makes his return to the Als after being part of the team’s training camp last season. The six-foot-three, 245-pound quarterback became a linebacker during his final two seasons of university sport.
Calver joins the Alouettes after five seasons with the Wilfrid-Laurier University Golden Hawks. The linebacker is six-foot-three weighing 220 pounds and was on the 2017 Ontario All-Star team.

Robinson is five-foot-eight, weighing 217 pounds and played for the University of Mississippi. He was drafted by the Indianapolis Colts in the sixth round in 2015 and had a workout with the Detroit Lions. After a season with the Saskatchewan Roughriders, he played in the Spring League, where players from the NFL and CFL are showcased.
Bramswig is six-foot-five and weighs 220 pounds. He played for one season with the Boston College Eagles on special teams after graduating from Manhattanville College and played in the Indoor Football League.
