The Canadian Football League announced its 2021 All-Star team Wednesday.
Once again, the Grey Cup champion Winnipeg Blue Bombers led the way with 11 All-Star selections, seven more than any other team. Quarterback Zach Collaros is the most notable Bombers selection, earning his first All-Star nod in his ninth CFL season.
Football Reporters of Canada and the league's nine head coaches voted on the 2021 All-Stars. Sixteen of the 27 All-Stars came from the West Division, while the Saskatchewan Roughriders and Edmonton Elks went unrepresented. Only four nationals were chosen, a small dip from two years ago.
