MONTREAL – Three former McGill University players are among 174 products from U SPORTS institutions that were listed on Canadian Football League rosters entering Week 1 of the 2025 CFL season, which kicks off on June 5. The total number, which includes 35 inactive players – from the practice roster, injured/suspended list – and is 19 fewer than last year. The U SPORTS record high is 208 set in 2021.
Over the years, McGill has produced 65 players for the CFL, including 11 who have combined to win 23 Grey Cup rings, and three who have also suited up in the NFL (see complete list below).
Leading the current group of McGillians is Montreal Alouettes defensive lineman
Joshua Archibald (BA '22) of Montreal, Lions linebacker
Maxime Rouyer (BEd '19) from Troyes, France, and defensive back
Benjamin Labrosse of Greenfield Park, Que., a former All-Canadian who was selected fourth overall in the 2024 CFL Draft.
Another McGill grad not included in the list above is former linebacker
Benoit Major (BSc '95), a CFL referee entering his 20th season in the league, who has worked in 335 games, including eight Grey Cup contests. The 51-year-old native of Montreal wears No. 31 on the back of his striped uniform, the same number that he wore as a middle linebacker when he played at McGill from 1992 to 1994. He graduated in just three years, earning a science degree in 1995, majoring in occupational therapy.
The 11-team OUA conference leads the way with 65 players listed on CFL rosters, followed by the six-team Canada West division which has 56. The Quebec-based RSEQ, a five-team league since Bishop's departed for the Maritimes in 2017, has 39 players listed and the five-team AUS has 14.
In total, all 27 U SPORTS football-playing institutions will be represented in the CFL this summer. The Vanier Cup champion Laval Rouge et Or and their RSEQ conference rival Montreal Carabins lead all schools with 14 former players apiece on CFL lineups. They are among eight U SPORTS football programs to reach double digits this year, along with Calgary (12), Wilfrid Laurier (11), UBC (11), Alberta (11), Guelph (11) and Saskatchewan (10).
The Hamilton Tiger Cats top all CFL teams with 23 rostered players from U SPORTS football. Edmonton and Saskatchewan rank second with 22 each, followed by Calgary (21), Montreal (19), Ottawa (18), Winnipeg (18), the B.C. Lions (16) and Toronto (15).
Defensive backs are the most common positions occupied by U SPORTS products with 36 players currently listed on CFL rosters. Offensive linemen are next with 35 roster spots, followed by linebackers (27), defensive linemen (25), receivers (23), running backs (10), long-snappers (7), kickers (5), fullbacks (3), tight ends (2) and quarterbacks (1).
The 2025 U SPORTS season officially kicks off with a pair of games on Aug. 22, when Acadia plays at Saint Mary's and McGill opens its 152nd year of intercollegiate football against Sherbrooke at Percival Molson Stadium. The regular season culminates on Nov. 22 with the 60th edition of the Vanier Cup national championship at Mosaic Stadium in Regina, Sask.
