Nic Grigsby ran 26 yards for a touchdown with just over two minutes left to lift the Winnipeg Blue Bombers to a 24-16 victory over the Montreal Alouettes on Friday.

Grigsby capped off a six-play, 74-yard drive that was helped when the Alouettes were called for pass interference.

Winnipeg (6-3) defensive back Maurice Leggett then intercepted Montreal quarterback Jonathan Crompton with 1:44 left in the game, a pick upheld despite a challenge for a pass-interference call.

Bombers kicker Lirim Hajrullahu then booted his third field goal of the game from 16 yards out to make it 24-16 at 14:07.

Leggett had another interception that he took to the end zone with 36 seconds left, but it was wiped out by a Bombers penalty.

The victory halted Winnipeg's two-game losing streak, while Montreal (1-7) has now lost six straight.
