The Saskatchewan Roughriders could have two of their major weapons back for Saturday’s game against the Montreal Alouettes.
Both wide receiver KeeSean Johnson and slotback Sam Emilus are listed as available for the game. The team will release its official depth chart Friday.
Emilus has been out since Week 12 when he suffered a lower-leg injury.

Johnson missed last week’s game with an ankle injury but appears to have avoided serious injury.
Prior to the team’s injury report being released, head coach Corey Mace discussed the status of Johnson.
“Pretty close. We still have to evaluate (Thursday’s) practice but try to put a little more on his plate,” Mace said. “These games, we have important games ahead of us, so guys might have to push through a little bit, but he’s really close.”
Centre Logan Ferland is listed as questionable for the game. He battled through a knee injury to finish the team’s last game — a 44-24 loss to the Alouettes.
Payton Collins, who was a late scratch last week due to an ankle injury, is also available for the game.
Riders linebacker Jaxon Ford was fined for a high hit on Alouettes quarterback Davis Alexander.
Saskatchewan can clinch a playoff game with a win paired with a loss by either the Winnipeg Blue Bombers or Calgary Stampeders.
Kickoff for the game is set for 1 p.m. The Green Zone pregame show begins at 11 a.m.
