The Montreal Alouettes announced Friday that they have acquired defensive lineman Michael Moore from the Edmonton Elks in exchange for offensive lineman Tony Washington and running back Martese Jackson.

A 6-foot-4, 269-pound native of Hyattsville, Maryland, Moore played 11 games in 2021 with the Elks and had 19 tackles and two sacks. The 28-year-old has 69 tackles, 17 sacks and a forced fumble in 48 career CFL games.

“Michael is a player we really like,” Alouettes general manager Danny Maciocia said in a statement. “He is capable of putting pressure on opposing attackers and will not back down against anyone. He will bring a lot of intensity to the field.”

Washington played three seasons with the Als, while Jackson joined the Alouettes for the 2021 season.
