Quarterback Zach Collaros out of game for Roughriders against Redblacks

Jun 21, 2018 | 8:00 PM

OTTAWA — The Saskatchewan Roughriders lost starting quarterback Zach Collaros early in their game against the Ottawa Redblacks on Thursday night.

Collaros, who was sacked in the first quarter, took a number of big hits including one by Avery Ellis, which appeared to be the one that forced him to leave the game in the second quarter.

Collaros was 4 for 10 for 106 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions when he left.

He was replaced at QB by Brandon Bridge.

Losing Collaros for any length of time would be difficult for the Roughriders.
