TSN: RIDERS TO USE BOTH COLLAROS AND BRIDGE AGAINST EDMONTON

Saskatchewan Roughriders head coach Chris Jones told reporters on Tuesday that both quarterbacks Zach Collaros and Brandon Bridge will play on Thursday against the Edmonton Eskimos, but did not tip his hand on who would start.

Collaros, who was acquired from the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in January, suffered a concussion in Week 2 against the Ottawa Redblacks and has been sidelined until this week.

“(Collaros) is certainly going to play a bunch,” Jones said after Tuesday’s closed workout. “It doesn’t matter (who will start). I know for sure Zach Collaros will play and Brandon Bridge, I’d say, will play a little bit too.”

TSN’s Matthew Scianitti reported that Collaros was working with doctors and neck specialists and has been feeling better over the past couple weeks.

Saskatchewan is 3-3 and sits fourth in the West Division.
