Down Lineman of the Year Watch List (U Sports J.P. Metras Trophy)

Could we see a three-peat? Mathieu Betts out of Laval has taken home the J.P Metras Trophy two years in a row, and if nobody finds a way to slow him down, I’m not sure what will stop him from grabbing the award for a third straight year. There’s plenty of competition on both sides of the ball though, so we could see a new name rise to the top from outside Quebec.
