Allen

Alabama senior Jonathan Allen was announced on Wednesday as the recipient of the 15th edition of the award, which honors the top defensive end in college football.

Allen received more than 50 percent of the final votes tallied by the Hendricks Selection Committee. Utah's Hunter Dimick finished second with more than 25 percent of the votes. The remaining votes were shared by Barnett, Boston College's Harold Landry, Pittsburgh's Ejuan Price and Florida State's DeMarcus Walker.

Allen added to his award total, having won the Bronko Nagurski Trophy given to the nation's top defensive player on Monday. He is the first Alabama player and third SEC player to win the Hendricks Award.

Allen has 56 tackles and nine sacks this season for the top-ranked Crimson Tide. He had four tackles and 1 1/2 sacks last Saturday as Alabama defeated Florida 54-16 to win its third straight SEC title.

How much money did Allen make by coming back for this senior year?

Would he have been a first rounder last year? Can't remember what the thought was on that.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - 7 DEC 2016

CHICAGO, IL – The Ted Hendricks Foundation is pleased to present Alabama’s Jonathan Allen as its recipient of the 15th edition of the Ted Hendricks Award, which honors the top defensive end in college football. The six finalists listed on this year’s ballot represent the best in today’s student-athlete and Ted is proud to have all of these men associated with his namesake award. Each Finalist received votes, as is the norm in the ultimate round of voting. When it came time to count the ballots, however, there was a clear-cut winner.

Jonathan Allen, a senior for the Crimson Tide, received over 50% of the final votes tallied from the Hendricks Selection Committee. Utah’s Hunter Dimick, an Academic All-America honoree and the Pac-12’s sacks leader, finished a strong second with more than 25%. The remaining votes were shared by Tennessee’s Derek Barnett, BC’s Harold Landry, Pittsburgh’s Ejuan Price and Florida State’s DeMarcus Walker.

Allen’s achievements this season include:
? First Team All-SEC (Coaches)
? Bronko Nagurski Trophy Winner (Nation’s Top Defensive Player)
? Finalist for the Walter Camp Award (Player of the Year)
? Finalist for the Bednarik Award (Defensive Player of the Year)
? Finalist for the Lott IMPACT Trophy (Defensive Best in Character & Performance)

He is the first Alabama player and third SEC player to win the Ted Hendricks Award. Georgia’s David Pollack was a two-time winner (2003 & 2004) and South Carolina’s Jadeveon Clowney took the trophy home in 2012.
