WINNIPEG — The Winnipeg Blue Bombers might have a lucky charm that helps pull them out of their funk this week.
Whitehead began his CFL career with Winnipeg in 2019 and became a fan favourite for his fun-loving nature on and off the field. He then signed with B.C. and played the past three seasons but wasn’t re-signed. The Blue Bombers inked him to a practice-roster spot in early July.Keon Hatcher hasn’t played since suffering an Achilles injury in B.C.’s division final loss to Winnipeg last season.“It’s gonna be fun just to see the guys and talk,” Whitehead said.
Whitehead gets his chance to run onto the Princess Auto Stadium turf after injuries in Winnipeg’s 16-14 overtime loss to the Toronto Argonauts last Saturday. Collaros, who has 1,723 yards passing with three touchdowns and eight interceptions, was sacked five times in the loss to Toronto. Winnipeg’s offence also committed five turnovers, one taken in for a TD.
