HAMILTON – Zach Collaros is out of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers’ lineup for Friday night’s matchup with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
The veteran quarterback remains sidelined with a neck injury suffered in last week’s 21-13 loss to Saskatchewan, with backup Chris Streveler starting in his place.
Streveler’s mobility gives Winnipeg a new wrinkle in the backfield alongside Brady Oliveira, who sits fourth in the CFL in rushing.
The Blue Bombers, now 6-6, have lost two straight and are fighting to stay above .500 as they head east.
Hamilton, meanwhile, improved to 7-5 after snapping a three-game skid with a 26-9 victory in Montreal behind Greg Bell’s 154 rushing yards and a touchdown.
The Ticats will also feature receiver Kenny Lawler against his former team for the first time since leaving Winnipeg.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Sept. 11, 2025.
