(Champaign–jc)  –Illinois outside linebacker Gabe Jacas was named the Panini Senior Bowl Defensive Player of the Week, the bowl announced Monday.

The preseason All-American helped lead the Fighting Illini to a 45-19 road victory at Duke on Saturday, highlighted by his strip sack of quarterback Darian Mensah that halted a Blue Devil second-quarter drive inside the Illinois red zone.

Jacas is the only player in the nation with a sack and a forced fumble in back-to-back games this season, having also posted a strip sack, one of two total sacks on the day, in the Illini's Week 1 victory over Western Illinois.
