The Winnipeg Blue Bombers rolled out the welcome mat this morning.

The CFL club officially announced the return of QB Justin Goltz.

Goltz, a 6-foot-5, 215-pound pivot out of Occidental College, first joined the club last October. He was immediately placed on the active roster, third on the depth chart.

Goltz runs drills during Blue Bomber camp in June.

Goltz was a late release at the 2011 training camp, but re-joins the team after backup QB Joey Elliott was placed on the nine-game injured list. Elliott suffered a season-ending knee injury in Thursday’s loss to Calgary.

Speaking of quarterbacks, second-year man Alex Brink saw most of the work at practice today. Starter Buck Pierce, who’s dealing with what the team is calling a left thigh bruise, did do some throwing but he was more of a spectator.

The team also signed defensive end Shawn Lemon. Lemon, a 6-foot-1, 238-pound import out of Akron, was selected as a All-MAC second team all-star as a senior last season.

Finally, WR/KR Tim Brown has been taken off the retired list. He was on the field, as the club went through a light workout in preparation for the Toronto Argonauts Saturday.
