Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Kaidon Salter has regained his starting role for Saturday’s home game against the Wyoming Cowboys, according to multiple reports on Wednesday.

Salter, a senior transfer from Liberty, started the Buffaloes’ first two games but lost his job to third-string sophomore Ryan Staub for last Friday’s game at Houston, a 36-20 setback which dropped Colorado to 1-2.

Head coach Deion Sanders, who also inserted true freshman Julian Lewis in the mix, said Tuesday that he had made a decision for the game against Wyoming (2-1) but didn’t reveal it.

Sanders was asked what he needed from the quarterback position.

“Leadership and consistency,” Sanders said Tuesday. “That’s it. That ain’t much to ask for, is it?”

Salter is 30-of-44 passing (68.2 percent) for 261 yards and one touchdown. He has added 67 yards and two TDs on 21 carries.

Staub, who provided a spark in the second half of the 31-7 home victory over Delaware, is 26 of 45 (57.8 percent) for 362 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. He has rushed 13 times for 34 yards.

Lewis, who also played against Delaware, has completed two of four passes for 8 yards and rushed twice for minus-7 yards.
