Josh Allen Named Lott Impact Trophy Player of the Week

Kentucky Linebacker Josh Allen has been named the Lott IMPACT Trophy Player of the Week.

The 6-5, 260-pound senior from Montclair, N.J. had three sacks, four tackles for loss, a quarterback hurry and a forced fumble as the surprising Wildcats remained undefeated (5-0) with a 24-10 over South Carolina.

Allen leads the nation in tackles for losses with 10.5 and is among the leaders in sacks with six.

“He’s really a dominant player and he’s exceptional on his feet as well. Yeah, half the time I do want to look at, wonder why in the world I’m dropping him sometimes because he’s not blockable,” Head Coach Mark Stoops said.
