(Winnipeg) Veteran quarterback Zach Collaros is back in practice with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

Collaros was back in charge of the main offensive unit in Monday’s practice for the Bombers (8-2), who host the Montreal Alouettes (6-3) on Thursday.

The Canadian League MVP of the past two seasons missed Friday’s 19-18 win over the Calgary Stampeders with a neck injury. Dru Brown took his place, completing 17 of 27 passes for 171 yards.

Collaros was hurt in the first half of his team’s 38-29 win over the Edmonton Elks on August 10. Brown had come into the game with the Bombers trailing 22-0 to drive their comeback.
