The Montreal Alouettes will be able to count on the return of a number of key players as they prepare for their next major clash with the Argonauts.

Starting quarterback Davis Alexander and star receiver Austin Mack – both of whom have been hampered by hamstring injuries – will be back in uniform. They had each missed the last two games. Meanwhile, Nick Callender, who has been out with a foot injury since the second week of activities, will also make an important return to the offensive line.

“That's football, injuries are part of the game. Talent is important, but so is availability. My goal is to stay healthy to help the team on the field.” – Austin Mack

Despite an absence that stretched over nearly six quarters of play in June, Davis Alexander was still crowned CFL Player of the Month, proof of his immediate impact. Since the start of the 2025 season, the Alouettes have gone undefeated when the 26-year-old quarterback was a starter (3-0 record).

What's more, Alexander boasts an impressive CFL career record of 7 wins and no losses. He is now just one win away from equalling Danny McManus‘s record for the most consecutive winning starts at the start of a career.

The return of this line could give a significant boost to the Alouettes, already on a roll at the start of the season.
