Victor has been shifting from middle linebacker to an edge-rushing role in certain packages for the UW defense this season.
Finally, Azeem Victor was back. Back to form. Back to punishing. Back in control in the middle of Washington’s defense during the Huskies’ victory at Colorado two weeks ago.
And then he wasn’t again.
Since he sustained a broken leg against USC last November, it has been a tumultuous 10 months for the senior middle linebacker.
By April, he was back on the field for the Huskies, running at near full speed.
This summer, he was named a preseason All-American by The Associated Press.
