Sam Boyer brings veteran linebacker grit, special-teams punch, and big-play instincts to Holy Cross
In the 2025 season, Sam Boyer is a senior linebacker for Holy Cross who stands out for his experience, versatility, and playmaking presence on defense and special teams.[1][3][6] He’s listed at 6-foot-1 and 225 pounds, and Holy Cross has highlighted his growth as a leader in a strong linebackers room; one of his signature moments came when he jumped on a blocked punt for a touchdown in the 2025 season finale against Georgetown.[1][3][8][12] If a team wants a tough, reliable, high-energy defender with postseason-worthy intensity, Boyer looks like the kind of glue player coaches love.
