Sean Allison is the engine of Drake’s defense, and the tackles prove it
In the 2025 season, Sean Allison emerged as one of the FCS’s most active linebackers, finishing with 126 total tackles, 8.0 tackles for loss, and two interceptions while leading a Drake defense that was stingy against Pioneer Football League opponents. He brings sideline-to-sideline range, steady production, and real playmaking juice, not just cleanup stats. He was also recognized as a 2025 Buck Buchanan Award finalist and earned All-America honors, which says a lot about his impact and consistency. If you want a linebacker who diagnoses fast and hits with purpose, he’s the real deal.
