Former Badger receives 23 NFL All-Pro votes
T.J. Edwards has had an outstanding year as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles, recording a career-high 159 tackles and while playing in all 17 of the team’s regular season contests. As a result, the former Badger earned himself 23 All-Pro votes, including three first-team votes.
Edwards has increased his production in each of his four seasons in the NFL after going undrafted in 2019 following four-year career with the Badgers. In his four seasons with Wisconsin, the linebacker recorded 366 total tackles, including eight sacks, while compiling 10 interceptions, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery. A highlight from his career with the Badgers was his 51-yard pick-six in Wisconsin’s 38-13 win over Maryland in 2018.
Edwards and the Eagles are enjoying a bye week in the first round of the NFL playoffs this weekend before they’ll return to action in the Divisional Round to take on an undetermined opponent next week.
TJ Edwards, who was an undrafted free agent (and is a free agent this offseason) received 23 All-Pro votes including 3 first-team votes. Incredible. #Badgers
