Junior offensive guard Joshua Fedd-Jackson was the Wolfpack’s lone first-team selection.

“Fedd-Jackson led the conference in run-blocking grade at the position as he ranked in the top 10 nationally in the run game,” PFF stated. “He was no slouch in pass protection, either, allowing just 15 pressures on a whopping 529 snaps in pass protection. He mauled up the middle and paved the way for some wide-open lanes while allowing just a combined three sacks and hits in the passing game.”

Fedd-Jackson wasn’t the Wolfpack’s only offensive lineman to earn recognition, as redshirt junior guard Joe Sculthorpe and true freshman left tackle Ikem Ekwonu were tabbed second-team picks.

Sophomore kicker Chris Dunn was also a second-team selection, as he made 21-of-24 field goals this year and all 28 of his extra point attempts.

Finally, senior edge defender Larrell Murchison, sophomore interior defender Alim McNeill, and sophomore punter Trenton Gill were honorable mention selections.
