MONTREAL — The Alouettes announced on Tuesday a series of transactions which included the release of international receiver T.J. Graham.

T.J. Graham was acquired by Montreal initially at the start of the 2017 season. He went on to sign with the Carolina Panthers of the NFL, only to be released at the end of training camp and would re-sign with the Alouettes a short time later. Prior to his time in the CFL, the 29-year-old spent five seasons in the NFL.

In his two seasons with the Als, Graham dressed for eight games, where he made 13 receptions for 150 yards. He spent the majority of the first half of the 2018 season on Montreal’s injury list.

In addition to his release, the Alouettes also released defensive lineman Michael Hill and defensive back Joe Rankin. The team also announced a pair of practice roster signings, bringing in former Louisville Cardinal receiver Jamari Staples and national defensive lineman Tresor Buama-Mafuta.
