WINNIPEG — The Winnipeg Blue Bombers have signed quarterback Chris Streveler to a one-year contract, the CFL club announced Saturday.

Streveler appeared in 13 games last season before sustaining a knee injury in a 26-21 win over Saskatchewan on Sept. 7.

A short-yardage specialist, Streveler had 10 rushing touchdowns in 2024, tying Calgary's Tommy Stephens for the league lead.

He also made one start, helping lead the club to a 25-16 victory over the Ottawa Redblacks on July 5 while starting quarterback Zach Collaros was out with a thorax injury.

Streveler finished the year throwing for 343 yards, one touchdown and one interception.

He is entering his fourth year with the Bombers. Streveler started 12 games in 2018 and 2019 with the Blue Bombers, helping the team win a Grey Cup in his second season. He returned to Winnipeg in 2024 after four seasons in the NFL.
