Brandon Bridge replaced Zach Collaros at quarterback for the Saskatchewan Roughriders mid-way through the second quarter of their game with the B.C. Lions on Saturday night.
Collaros was on the receiving end of a hard hit from B.C.’s Odell Willis late in the first quarter. Willis was given a roughing the passer penalty on the play.
Team staff took Collaros to Saskatchewan’s locker-room for precautionary reasons.
Roughriders head coach Chris Jones told TSN at halftime that Collaros would not return for the second half.
Collaros was 5-for-8 passing for 52 yards and Saskatchewan led 13-1 when Bridge entered the game.
