DeAngelis made four of five field goal attempts and four converts to earn special-teams player of the week honours. He has made 46 of 53 (86.8 per cent) field goals attempted in his fourth season with the team and is the most accurate kicker in CFL history, hitting 83.9 per cent (172 of 205) of his field goals.
Stamps defensive lineman Justin Phillips was runner-up for special-teams honours.
Collins had two interceptions, one quarterback sack and three tackles in his second start of the season, to earn the nod as defensive player of the week. He has suited up in seven games for the Stamps this season after being converted to defensive back from receiver in training camp.
"The win over Saskatchewan on Monday was our best team effort of the season," said head coach/general manger John Hufnagel. "Both of these individuals played extremely well and I'm happy that they were able to receive this acknowledgement from the CFL."
This is the second such honour for DeAngelis this year and Collins' first of the season. Quarterback Henry Burris (offensive) was honoured in Week 12, while DeAngelis and defensive end Mike Labinjo (defensive) were recognized in Week 9.
The next Stampeders home game is this Saturday, Oct. 18 against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Kickoff is 4:30 p.m. and fans are encouraged to get their tickets through Ticketmaster at 403.777.0000 or by visiting Ticketmaster.ca.
