Alonzo Addae (born July 11, 1997) is a Canadian professional football defensive back for the Ottawa Redblacks of the Canadian Football League (CFL).

College career After using a redshirt season in 2016, Addae first played college football for the New Hampshire Wildcats from 2017 to 2018.

Addae then transferred to the West Virginia University in 2019 to play for the Mountaineers, but sat out for the season due to transfer eligibility requirements.

Addae was drafted in the second round, 13th overall, by the Ottawa Redblacks in the 2021 CFL draft. However, he did not play for the team in 2021 as he returned to school to complete his college eligibility. In the following week, also against the Blue Bombers, he made his first career start, replacing an injured Justin Howell, where he recorded two defensive tackles. He played in all 18 regular season games, starting in 12, where he had 28 defensive tackles, and one special teams tackle.

In 2023, he again played in 18 games and recorded 24 defensive tackles, eight special teams tackles, four interceptions, and two forced fumbles.

In January 2025, Addae was signed to a two-year deal with the Redblacks.

Personal life Addae was born to parents Les Addae and Renée Bethea and he has two brothers. Addae's cousin, Jahleel Addae, played defensive back in the National Football League and his other cousin, Jahmile Addae, also played defensive back and coached him while at West Virginia.
