Roosevelt has been missing from action since Week 15, where he suffered an injury, despite staying in to finish the game against the Argonauts.
In 13 games this season, the six-foot-one, 195-pound receiver has hauled in 48 passes for 570 yards and four touchdowns.
The Roughriders host the BC Lions this week as they eye playoff position in the West Division.
