Riders Safety Marc-Olivier Brouillette retires

Roughrider Marc-Olivier Brouillette has announced his retirement from football.

The French-Canadian safety played nine seasons in the league, most recently with the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

Brouillette was taken in the third round of the 2010 CFL draft by the Montreal Alouettes. He went on to play seven seasons in his hometown before being traded to Saskatchewan.

Brouillette took some time away from football after the trade before signing with the green and white in September of 2017. He played 14 regular-season games through two seasons with Riders.

Over 117 career regular-season games Brouillette collected 215 defensive tackles, 32 special-teams tackles, eight quarterback sacks and five interceptions.
