Gabriel Grégoire is a former defensive lineman in the Canadian Football League.[1]

Grégoire went to high school at the Collège de Montréal, but played his junior football with the Verdun Maple Leafs.

The 6-foot-3-inch (1.91 m) and 230-pound (100 kg) lineman joined the Montreal Alouettes in 1976 and played 5 seasons, for a total of 65 games, and three Grey Cup championships, one, the 65th Grey Cup, which he helped win in 1977.

Gabriel Grégoire was always a fan favourite in predominantly francophone Montreal, as he was truly a home grown talent playing during the Alouettes' glory years.

Grégoire was the co-host of the sport radio show on CKAC sport named Sports du lit with host Michel Langevin.[2][3] He also appears regularly on television for his football and sports expertise.
