Two Texas A&M Aggies Named to PFF Preseason All-American Team
As the 2025 college football season approaches, anticipation is building across the country—and Texas A&M fans have a lot to be excited about. Pro Football Focus (PFF), a respected authority in football analytics, has released its Preseason All-American Team, and two standout Aggies have made the cut. This prestigious recognition reflects not only their individual talent and hard work but also the strength and depth of the Texas A&M football program heading into the new season.
The Aggies have long been a breeding ground for elite football talent, and this year is no exception. The two players named to the PFF Preseason All-American Team are a testament to the program’s continued development under head coach Mike Elko. While PFF evaluates players using advanced metrics that go beyond traditional statistics, earning a spot on this list means these Aggies have consistently graded out among the best in the nation at their respective positions.
One of the honorees is offensive lineman Bryce Foster, an anchor on the Aggies’ offensive front. Foster, known for his strength, technique, and football IQ, has been a vital part of Texas A&M’s offensive line since his freshman year. After battling injuries in previous seasons, he has returned to form, impressing scouts and analysts alike with his pass protection and run-blocking efficiency. Foster’s presence in the trenches will be crucial as the Aggies aim to establish a powerful ground game and give their quarterback ample time to make plays.
On the defensive side of the ball, defensive lineman Shemar Turner has also received preseason All-American honors. Turner emerged as a dominant force last season, wreaking havoc in opposing backfields with his explosive first step, relentless motor, and ability to disrupt both the run and pass. He led the team in tackles for loss and sacks in 2024, and expectations are even higher for him in 2025. His versatility and athleticism make him a matchup nightmare for offensive coordinators, and he is expected to be a cornerstone of the Aggies’ defense.
The inclusion of both Foster and Turner on PFF’s prestigious list bodes well for the Aggies’ prospects this season. It not only reflects the high level of individual talent on the roster but also boosts the team’s national profile. Honors like these are a sign that Texas A&M is producing NFL-caliber players and positioning itself to compete at the highest level in the Southeastern Conference (SEC).
Aggie fans have every reason to be optimistic as the season draws near. With stars like Foster and Turner leading the way, Texas A&M is poised to make noise on the national stage. If these preseason accolades translate into regular-season dominance, the Aggies could find themselves in serious contention for a conference title—and possibly a spot in the expanded College Football Playoff.
In the world of college football, preseason predictions aren’t everything, but they do set the tone. For Texas A&M, the message is clear: the Aggies are loaded with talent, and the nation is taking notice.
