In the words of DJ Kalid, “another one”. Shemar Turner and Nic Scourton continue to rack up preseason award acknowledgments. On Thursday, the Lombardi committee named both defensive linemen to the Lombardi Award Preseason Watchlist. The last Texas A&M football player to earn the award was Texas A&M Hall of Famer Dat Nguyen.

This prestigious accolade continues to honor the Outstanding College Football Lineman, whether on offense or defense, who displays exceptional performance and ability and embodies the character and discipline that Vince Lombardi championed throughout his life.

Turner tallied 33 tackles, 6.0 sacks, 10.5 TFLs, and a blocked pair of kicks. He also finished the season with an All-SEC Second Team selection. Scourton recorded 50 tackles, 10.0 sacks, 15 TFLs, and finished the season with an All-Big Ten Second Team selection after his final season with Purdue.
