With the CFL playoffs starting next weekend, Winnipeg Blue Bombers quarterback Chris Streveler released a statement on Sunday morning, a day after leaving the regular season finale with a concerning injury. <\/p>\n
\u201cBeen trying to wrap my mind around what happened yesterday and the road ahead. All I know is this: I have no regrets. About the way I carried myself as a teammate & leader day in and day out. About how I worked everyday to get better. About how I treated everyone around me,\u201d the message on Instagram read. <\/p>\n
\u201dI never cheated the process and laid it on the line every single time I stepped on the field. I\u2019m not sure what the future looks like, but I\u2019m confident there\u2019s better things waiting for me on the other side of this recovery. I hope that my journey and mindset can inspire others to persevere through adversity just like I have done, and will continue to do. Thank you, as always, for all the support and everyone that reached out, it means more than you know.” <\/p>\n
Streveler was seen on crutches in the Winnipeg\u2019s locker room following the game. <\/p>\n

The injury is to his left leg — the same side where he tore three of the four major ligaments in his knee last year.#Bombers<\/a> | #ForTheW<\/a> | #Winnipeg<\/a> | #CFL<\/a><\/p>\n
