The Calgary Stampeders have hired André Bolduc and Ryan Williams to finalize their coaching staff for the 2024 season.
Bolduc will serve as Calgary’s running backs coach after spending this past season with the Saskatchewan Roughriders as their running backs coach and run-game coordinator. He spent eight seasons with the Montreal Alouettes prior to that and interviewed for the club’s head coaching job in 2023. He has also previously coached at the Université de Montréal, Université de Sherbrooke, and Collège Montmorency.
The native of Alma, Que. went unselected in the 1996 CFL Draft out of Concordia before spending six seasons in the league as a member of the Ottawa Rough Riders, Edmonton Elks, and Montreal Alouettes. He caught 38 passes for 393 yards and one touchdown and recorded 52 career special teams tackles with two fumble recoveries.
Williams will be the quarterbacks coach with the Stampeders after spending the past six years at the University of Georgia. He served as an assistant wide receivers and quality control coach, graduate assistant, and recruiting and player personnel analyst with the Bulldogs, helping them win two National Championships.
The native of Hollywood, Fla. played quarterback at the University of Memphis and signed with the Green Bay Packers as an undrafted free agent in 2016.
Marc Mueller served as Calgary’s quarterbacks coach this past season but is now the offensive coordinator with the Saskatchewan Roughriders. J.R. Davies, who served as Calgary’s running backs coach in 2023, appears to no longer be with the team.
The Stampeders have kept the rest of their coaching staff consistent under head coach and general manager Dave Dickenson, including special teams coordinator and assistant head coach Mark Kilam, defensive coordinator Brent Monson, offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Pat DelMonaco, defensive backs coach and CFL draft coordinator Dwayne Cameron, linebackers coach Bob Slowik, receivers coach Nik Lewis, defensive line coach Juwan Simpson, and offensive and special teams assistant coach Des Catellier.
