DALLAS (July 21, 2020) - Washington State linebacker Jahad Woods was named to the 2020 Bronko Nagurski Trophy Watch List, the Charlotte Touchdown Club announced Tuesday.
Woods is one of eight Pac-12 Conference linebackers named to the watch list for the award given to the National Defensive Player of the Year.
Woods, a two-time All-Pac-12 Conference honorable mention pick, produced one of the best seasons in Washington State history as a redshirt-junior last season. The San Diego native recorded 141 tackles, fourth-most in the country and tied for the fifth-most in WSU single-season history, the most by a Cougar since 1991.
