St. Thomas’ sack-hunting linebacker who wrecks plays in bunches
In the 2025 season, Jordan Pendleton emerged as a disruptive front-seven piece for St. Thomas, leading the Pioneer Football League in sacks and setting the program’s DI-era single-season sacks record with 7.5, while adding 47 tackles, 12.0 tackles for loss, 3 forced fumbles, and a fumble recovery. The big takeaway: he’s not just a tackler, he’s a momentum thief—long, physical, and consistently living in the backfield. If your team wants an edge defender who changes game plans and brings real pass-rush juice, Pendleton is a very attractive fit.
