By now, you know all about Washington senior linebackers Keishawn Bierria and Azeem Victor.
Bierria, in the words of linebackers coach Bob Gregory, is the “alpha dog” of the defense. Victor is the hard-hitting fan favorite making a comeback from a broken leg. They’re entering their third year as a starting tandem, and they will almost certainly end their UW careers on the very short list of best inside linebackers in program history.
But behind them are two of the more underappreciated players on the team — DJ Beavers and Ben Burr-Kirven.
