Scott Milanovich and Vince Martino received new jobs titles as the revamping of the Montreal Alouettes' coaching staff continued on Wednesday.

Milanovich was promoted to offensive co-ordinator, while the team named Martino the new offensive line coach.

Head coach Marc Trestman made the announcements during his first interview with Montreal reporters since he was hired last month.

Trestman was not able to attend a news conference announcing his hiring due to a family medical emergency involving his father.

Milanovich spent four years in NFL Europe, including two as offensive co-ordinator, before spending last season as the Alouettes' quarterback coach.

Milanovich was a quarterback during his playing days, with stops in the NFL, NFL Europe, Arena Football League, XFL and CFL's Calgary Stampeders.

Martino was offensive line coach with the Hamburg Sean Devils, who won the NFL Europe championship last season.
