Two standout offensive linemen from Army West Point have been selected for the 2027 Shriners Children's East-West Bowl 1000, a prestigious all‑star showcase that gathers the nation’s top senior draft‑eligible players.
A milestone for the offensive line
Brady Small, who earned American Conference First Team All‑Conference honors in both 2024 and 2025, will serve as team captain for the 2026 season after helping the Black Knights capture the 2024 Joe Moore Award, a first for a Group of Five program.
Teddy Williams, who moved from tight end to right tackle ahead of the 2025 season, started every game and anchored a line that produced 3,485 rushing yards while allowing just seven sacks — the best mark in FBS.
The East-West Bowl is scheduled for February 4, 2027 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, where NFL coaches will guide the participants, making the event a key stepping stone toward the NFL Draft.
Army’s 2026 season opens on September 5 against Bryant at Michie Stadium, giving fans an early look at the revamped line before the bowl game.
