BOULDER—Senior Nate Landman is one of 98 players nationally on the watch list for the Bronko Nagurski Trophy presented by LendingTree, the Football Writers Association of America and Charlotte Touchdown Club announced Tuesday. The award is given to the nation's top defensive player, picked from a group of five finalists that are narrowed down after the selection of the FWAA All-America team.
Landman, who was on the watch list last season for the Bronko Nagurski Trophy, becomes the first CU player to earn a mention on the watch list twice. Landman would be the first CU player to win the award.
