Winnipeg Blue Bombers quarterback Zach Collaros exited in the third quarter of the team’s Banjo Bowl matchup against the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Saturday afternoon.

The two-time Most Outstanding Player appeared to suffer the injury while attempting a tackle after throwing an interception late in the third quarter.

Collaros left the contest after completing 13-of-19 passes for 175 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions.

It is the second straight Banjo Bowl that Collaros has left with an injury, after leaving in the third frame of the 2025 instalment as well.

This season, the 38-year-old three-time Grey Cup champion has completed 70.8 per cent of his passes for 2,029 yards, 10 touchdowns, and four interceptions.
