From the Alouette Press Release - February 15, 2013
Hopkins (6'2", 277 lbs.) had a fast start with the Alouettes in 2011, registering a pair of sacks in his first game with Montreal. He finished the season with four sacks and 17 defensive tackles in just ten games. The 26-year-old defensive tackle missed the 2012 season due to a blood clot which was removed prior to training camp.
"We look forward to Moton's return. We missed him last year and spent most of the season with a rotation of players, but more importantly, we are very happy Moton is healthy again," said Popp.
