REGINA – Quarterback Darian Durant is back practising with the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

Durant took the majority snaps with the Riders’ starting offence Thursday with backup Drew Willy also seeing action.

Durant, 30, suffered a sprained foot in Saskatchewan’s 39-28 road win over Toronto last week and began the week wearing a walking boot.

But Durant removed the boot Wednesday and was showing no ill affects in practice Thursday.

The unbeaten Riders (3-0) host the Hamilton Tiger-Cats (1-2) on Sunday.
