<\/p>\nBut he wasn\u2019t going to dwell on it.<\/p>\n
\t<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s life. Stuff is going to happen and adversity, but you just have to bounce back from it and understand the sport we play, you\u2019re going to deal with some injuries. Just try to come back as fast as you can and come back healthier and better than you were before,\u201d Collins said.<\/p>\n
The 6\u20197\u2033, 301-pound offensive tackle is expected to return to an offensive line<\/a> that has done a good job thus far when it comes to keeping quarterback Trevor Harris upright. The Riders have only allowed nine sacks<\/a> this season\u2014tied for the third-fewest in the CFL.<\/p>\n Saskatchewan also features one of the top rushing attacks in the game, averaging 106.7 yards on the ground per game.<\/p>\n Collins is one of three players who have had to rotate through the offensive tackle spot this season. Collins started Week 1 at the position, but then Daniel Johnson<\/a> started the next four games with Darius Washington playing in the last two contests.<\/p>\n Collins credits the leadership of the offensive line for the team being able to consistently overcome injuries to the group.<\/p>\n \u201cThey make sure everyone is prepared every week, so that\u2019s why everyone feels so confident. I think they do a great job of having everyone prepared and stuff like that,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n The Riders will look to keep that going and improve on their CFL-best 6-1 record<\/a> on Saturday as they travel to Montreal to take on the Alouettes. Kickoff for the game is set for 5 p.m. The Green Zone pregame show begins at 3 p.m.<\/a><\/p>\n Saskatchewan did see a few players return to the field for day two of preparations for Montreal.<\/p>\n After having nine players not participate in Tuesday\u2019s practice, that number was down to five for Wednesday. Mario Alford (hip), Sam Emilus (knee), Daniel Johnson (shoulder), Lake Korte-Moore (knee), and Aubrey Miller Jr. (knee) did not participate.<\/p>\n Malik Carney (ankle), Dhel Duncan-Busby (shoulder), Zack Fry (head), and C.J. Reavis (foot) were all limited in practice ahead of the game.<\/p>\n by Britton Gray, CKOM News Staff<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"But he wasn\u2019t going to dwell on it. \u201cThat\u2019s life.
