MONTREAL — The Montreal Alouettes have removed quarterback McLeod Bethel-Thompson from the six-game injured list and he will return to practice this week, the team announced on Tuesday.
Bethel-Thompson was placed on the six-game in August after suffering an injury in Week 10 against the Edmonton Elks.
The pivot was acquired from the Elks in the off-season in a trade involving pivot Cody Fajardo and appeared in nine games, throwing for 957 yards, four touchdowns and five interceptions.

The Alouettes also announced on Tuesday that running back Sean Thomas Erlington has been placed on the six-game injured list. The 33-year-old sustained an upper-body injury against the Tiger-Cats last Saturday.
