Every lineman, LB in college football on Lombardi Award watch list

Okay, not really, but you get the point.

In addition to the Butckus Award watch list, the Rotary Lombardi Trophy watch list was released today sporting an obvious lack of modesty with the number of players on it. Eligibility for the Rotary Lombardi Award is limited to offensive (including tight ends) or defensive linemen and linebackers.

Last year’s winner was Boston College linebacker Luke Kuechly.

You can view all of the individual preseason watch lists in one handy repository HERE, and the entire Lombardi Award watch list below:
