Blue Dukes Alum Nick Bellore (’07) has always been the pride of the Blue Dukes Nation, and Sports Illustrated recently took notice of the Dukes Hall of Famer in a feature story on SI.com.
“[F]or those who questioned why Seattle retained Bellore despite rarely using him offensively, the 31-year old has silenced many of those critics with his sensational special teams contributions this season,” wrote SI’s SeahawkMaven columnist Corbin Smith.
“Through Week 11, he ranks second in the NFL with 11 special teams tackles, has recovered a fumble on the kickoff coverage team, and as another sign fans have finally acknowledged his talents in an often overlooked role, he’s currently leading all NFC special teams players for Pro Bowl votes.”
