Bryant junior quarterback Zevi Eckhaus was named the FedEx National Offensive Player of the Week by Stats Perform following his performance against Southeast Missouri. 

Eckhaus ended the season by completing 22-of-28 passes for 394 yards and six touchdowns in Bryant’s 45-21 victory over SEMO. The junior tied the program record for touchdown passes in a game, season (28) and career (75).

Four of his touchdown passes came in the first half (each going to a different receiver) as the Bulldogs led 28-7 at the break. Eckhaus has now had four-straight games with 300-plus years and four touchdowns.

Eckhaus ranks third nationally in passing touchdowns (28) and total offense (296.4 yards/game), eighth in points responsible for/game (16.2), ninth in passing yards (2,907), 12th in passing yards/game (264.3), 13th in completions/game (21.64) and 22nd in passing efficiency (147.9).

He is the first Big South-OVC player to be named National Offensive Player of the Week this season. The Association has had two National Defensive Players of the Week and a National Freshman of the Week during the 2023 campaign.
