WINNIPEG - Zach Collaros watched Chris Streveler fall to the turf in last weekend’s Blue Bombers’ regular-season finale and knew it was a serious.

The backup quarterback was scrambling against the Montreal Alouettes when he went down before he was even hit. He then grabbed his left knee — the same knee he tore up last year that ended his season.

“I was heartbroken,” Collaros said Tuesday after the Blue Bombers practised for Saturday’s CFL East Division semifinal in Montreal.

“It’s hard to put into words. I’ve been talking to him the last couple days and just there’s not really anything you can say to make it better.”

Winnipeg went on to beat the Alouettes 19-10 with third-stringer Terry Wilson at the helm as Collaros was being rested for the playoffs.
