TORONTO \u2013 Nick Arbuckle could be back as the Toronto Argonauts starting quarterback.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Arbuckle missed Toronto\u2019s 21-19 loss last week to Montreal due to a calf injury. But on Tuesday, Arbuckle took roughly 60 per cent of reps with the Argos starting offence ahead of Jarret Doege \u2014 who started against the Alouettes \u2014 much to the surprise of head coach Ryan Dinwiddie.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know, Jarret still got about 40 per cent of it but I was shocked Nick was moving around as good as he was,\u201d Dinwiddie said. \u201cWe\u2019ll see how (Wednesday) is going to go.<\/p>\n

Arbuckle made 13 straight starts before suffering his calf injury late in Toronto\u2019s 31-30 home win over Edmonton on Sept. 13. Doege replaced Arbuckle in that contest, marching the Argos 40 yards on eight plays before Lirim Hajrullahu connected from 48 yards out with no time remaining.<\/p>\n

The six-foot-one, 210-pound Doege completed three-of-six passes for 35 yards against his former team. Doege then started against Montreal, finishing 25-of-37 passing for 207 yards with a TD and interception.<\/p>\n

As a result of missing last week\u2019s start, Arbuckle dropped to second in CFL passing (4,089) behind Hamilton\u2019s Bo Levi Mitchell (4,194). Mitchell also leads in TD passes with 28, three more than second-place Arbuckle.<\/p>\n
