Last Updated Wednesday, November 16, 2022 1:13PM ESTThe Toronto quarterback had a front-row seat five years ago when an upstart Argonauts squad registered a huge Grey Cup upset.

And once again, Collaros was a big part of Winnipeg's success this season. The 34-year-old threw a CFL-best 37 touchdown passes and won 15-of-17 regular season starts in being named a finalist for the league's outstanding player award, an honour he captured last year. Bethel-Thompson hasn't exactly been chopped liver this season. The veteran quarterback led the CFL in passing and anchored the league's second-ranked aerial attack .

Harris was hampered by a torn pectoral muscle sustained in August. But he returned to the Argos' lineup in time for last weekend's win over Montreal, rushing for 42 yards on nine carries while scoring his first TD of '22.
