HOUSTON – Texas A&M offensive lineman Trey Zuhn III was named to the Lombardi Award Preseason Watch List, the award's committee announced Tuesday. The honor is given annually to the nation's most outstanding lineman.
Zuhn, a two-time team captain, is one of the country's top offensive linemen after earning All-SEC Third Team honors last season. The fifth-year senior leads the team with 37 career starts as he enters his fourth year as the Aggies' fixture at left tackle. Zuhn helped lead an offensive front that paved the way as only one of three teams in the SEC and one of 18 in the in FBS to produce over 2,500 rushing and passing yards last season. Texas A&M ranked No. 2 in the SEC in rushing yards, averaging 195.5 per game and produced 27 rushing scores.
The Fort Collins, Colorado, native played a team-high 882 offensive snaps last year and graded as the Aggies' top pass blocker at 80.8 according to PFF. He allowed just two sacks in 417 pass plays and was flagged for a penalty just twice in 13 games. Zuhn has also been named to the Preseason Outland Trophy Watch List and a Preseason All-SEC First Team selection by Athlon and Phil Steele.
The Lombardi Award was established in 1970, in memory of legendary coach Vince Lombardi. It is presented to outstanding linemen who best epitomize his values of leadership, courage, performance and discipline on and off the field. This marks the 52nd anniversary of the award which has been handed out in Houston since its inception. The 2025 award dinner will feature all finalists and take place on Dec. 10.
