2021 OT JP Benzschawel signs with Wisconsin

Grafton High School prospect JP Benzschawel is following in his family’s footsteps and signing with the Wisconsin Badgers.

Benzschawel’s brother Beau played offensive lineman for Wisconsin from 2015-18 and his brother Luke played tight end from 2016-19. His father Scott also played for Wisconsin from 1983-87, as well as his uncle Eric, from 1988-92.

Benzschawel also recently brought home some hardware, when he won the Joe Thomas Award, which is given to the top senior offensive lineman in the state.

The top OT in the state is tall with good length and moved around the football field naturally, with great footwork, which could be tied to his basketball background.
