The Butkus Foundation recently announced the 2026 high school watch list for the Butkus Award®, recognizing 51 of the nation’s top high school linebackers. The 51-player list honors Dick Butkus’ iconic No. 51 jersey and recognizes the toughness, instincts, leadership, competitiveness, football character, and linebacking skill that defined one of the greatest defensive players in football history.
