Winnipeg Blue Bombers list Collaros as game-time decision for East Division final

Nov 6, 2026 | 8:20 AM

MONTREAL — Veteran quarterback Zach Collaros is listed as a game-time decision for Saturday’s East Division final.

Winnipeg listed Collaros atop its quarterback depth chart Friday but with the game-time decision designation.

Collaros suffered a rib injury in Winnipeg’s 34-10 season-ending win over the B.C. Lions on Oct. 23.

He didn’t play in the Bombers’ 25-22 win over the Toronto Argonauts last week in the East Division semifinal.

Collaros was listed as questionable for Saturday’s contest on Winnipeg’s injury report after being limited Wednesday and not practising Thursday.

Dru Brown started last week’s playoff game. His 23-yard touchdown pass to Nic Demski with 44 seconds remaining, and subsequent two-point conversion to the veteran receiver, rallied Winnipeg to victory.

If Collaros can’t play Saturday, Brown would start for Winnipeg.
