2017 Hendricks Award Watch List
Â
RALEIGH, N.C. – Senior Bradley Chubb picked up another national honor today, as he was named to the 2017 Hendricks Award Watch List, which has been awarded annually to the nation's top defensive end for the past 15 years.
Â
Earlier this summer, Chubb was announced as a candidate for the Bednarik Award and the Nagurski Trophy, which both honor the national defensive player of the year. He was also named to Sports Illustrated's Preseason All-America Team, the Athlon Sports 2017 All-America Team, and the All-ACC Preseason Team.
Â
A 2017 team captain, Chubb ranked fourth in the FBS in tackles for loss last season. His 22 TFLs in 2016 was the second-best mark in school history, trailing only No. 1 NFL draft pick Mario Williams.
Â
The Ted Hendricks Award is named in honor of college football's first three-time first-team All-American. On-field performance, exceptional winning attitude, leadership abilities, contributions to school and community and academic preparedness are some of the criteria used to determine the Award's winner. Members of the national media, head coaches, professional scouts and former winners are included in the Award's voting committee.Â
 Â
The Wolfpack kicks off its 2017 campaign in the Belk College Kickoff game in Charlotte against South Carolina on September 2. Tickets for that contest, as well as season tickets, are available HERE.
