The Toronto Argonauts could have their starting quarterback available for Saturday’s pivotal divisional matchup with the Montreal Alouettes.
Ricky Ray took first team reps at Tuesday’s Argos practice, throwing 25-30 passes during team drills against the defence.
Ray, leading the first team offence, had what Head Coach Marc Trestman called an ‘efficient’ day of work, feeling no limitations in the throws he was able to make.
“Ricky practiced the entire day,” said Trestman. “We had a very efficient practice. We’ll see how he feels tomorrow but he didn’t miss a rep, he took every rep today.”
Along with the work during team periods, the 15-year veteran participated in all of his typical individual and positional-based drills.
The Argos quarterback is working his way back from a shoulder injury suffered during the team’s Week Seven against the Calgary Stampeders. He missed the first game of the team’s home-and-home against the Montreal Alouettes last week in Montreal.
