Wisconsin Badger senior tight end Lance Kendricks has been named one of 8 semifinalists for the John Mackey Award, given annually to the nation’s top tight end.
Kendricks has a team leading 31 receptions for 473 yards and 4 receiving touchdowns.
No Badger has ever won the Mackey Award, though Travis Beckum was a semifinalist in 2006 and a finalist in 2007.
The Badgers are getting ready for Saturday’s Big Ten road game against the Michigan Wolverines.
