Chandler Named to Bednarik Award Watch List

PHILADELPHIA - The Maxwell Football Club today announced its watch lists for the 23rd annual Chuck Bednarik Award and Temple's defensive back Sean Chandler is among those players.

The Camden, N.J. native is a two-time All-American Athletic Conference second-team selection (2015-16) and an ECAC first team All-Star in 2016. He enters 2017 with seven career interceptions, 12th all-time in school history, and is the team's active leader with 186 career tackles and three fumble recoveries. Chandler is also the only Owl freshman ever awarded the prestigious single-digit jersey, given to one of the nine toughest players each season.
