{allcanada} Tisdale signs one-year deal with Alouettes

The Montreal Alouettes continued to lock up their own potential free agents before they hit the market, signing CB Geoff Tisdale to a one-year deal just ahead of free agency.

"Geoff has been one of the top corners in the CFL over the last two seasons," Alouettes general manager Jim Popp said in a team release. "He has consistently been at the top in leading the CFL in interceptions and has great man skill abilities. We look forward to another successful year from Geoff in 2015."

Tisdale has spent the past two years in Montreal and was named an East Division All-Star this year after finishing with 39 tackles and five interceptions.

The 28-year-old has also played for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and Calgary Stampeders during his six-year CFL career.

The Montreal Gazette first reported the news Monday night.
