  "account": "Veteran quarterback Zach Collaros is listed as a game-time decision for Winnipeg's East Division final on Saturday. The injury-plagued player was named atop the team's quarterback depth chart on Friday, but the designation underscores the uncertainty surrounding his availability. Collaros suffered a rib injury in Winnipeg's season-ending 34-10 win over the B.C. Lions on October 23. He did not participate in the Bombers' 25-22 victory over the Toronto Argonauts in the East Division semifinal, and was placed on the injury report as questionable on Friday after limited practice on Wednesday and sitting out on Thursday. Dru Brown started in last week's playoff game, throwing a 23-yard touchdown pass to Nic Demski with 44 seconds left, followed by a two-point conversion to seal Winnipeg's 22-20 victory. Should Collaros be unable to play on Saturday, Brown would take his place behind Winnipeg's starter. This report by The Canadian Press was first published November 6, 2026, with Global News added as a Preferred Source for further coverage.",
