The Winnipeg Blue Bombers will have their QB1, after all.
Zach Collaros was officially listed as active for Saturday's East Final against the Montreal Alouettes, the team announced pre-game.
The veteran quarterback entered the day with a game-time decision designation due to a rib injury.
Collaros suffered the 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 semifinal.
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.
As for Collaros, he returns to the Bombers after a solid regular season under centre. He racked up 2,989 passing yards for 236 completions (on a 70.4 per cent rate), 15 touchdowns and 10 interceptions.
The winner of Saturday's East Final will head to Calgary to take on one of the B.C. Lions or Saskatchewan Roughriders in the CFL's 113th Grey Cup next Sunday.
