WINNIPEG – Weston Dressler will make his return to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers’ lineup on Sunday in Regina to face his ex-team. Dressler was one of four changes the Blue Bombers made to their 46-man roster for Sunday’s annual Labour Day clash with the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

Dressler, 31, will suit up for the first time since week five. He replaces Thomas Mayo at receiver. Newcomer Brandon Tennant will make his Blue Bombers debut at defensive tackle with Jake Thomas out of the lineup with an injury. Linebacker Teague Sherman is back on the active roster for the first time since July 1. Cornerback Terrence Frederick is also listed on the 46-man roster after sitting out last week’s game with a lower body injury. But Frederick will likely be one of their two scratches, with the defensive secondary expected to look the same as it did last week in their win over the Montreal Alouettes.
