The Winnipeg Blue Bombers are sticking with Dru Brown at quarterback against the B.C. Lions.
With starting quarterback Zach Collaros still recovering from a neck injury, Brown will make his fourth consecutive start in place of the two-time MOP for the Blue Bombers (4-3), the team announced Wednesday.
Brown is 2-1, but is coming off a four-interception outing in a 52-30 loss to the Calgary Stampeders.
The Lions are expected to make a change at quarterback with Kaidon Salter taking first-team reps at Lions practice this week.
Chase Brice started last week against the Argos, but was ineffective and replaced by Salter late in a 26-12 loss. Salter, who played his final college season for Colorado last season, completed nine of 15 passes for 121 yards against the Argos.
Lions star QB Nathan Rourke, the 2025 CFL MOP, was placed on the six-game injured list last week with a shoulder injury to his non-throwing arm. He was listed as limited on Monday’s injury report.
The Lions (1-5) are in desperate need of a win to stay afloat in the West Division.
