In May 2024, he received an invitation to the Miami Dolphins' rookie camp.
"Geoffrey has done a very good job since joining us and he deserves this vote of confidence," said Danny Maciocia, General Manager of the Montreal Alouettes. "He keeps improving and taking on more and more responsibility. We are very pleased with this agreement."
