Linebacker
Liam Anderson of the Holy Cross football team signed with the Indianapolis Colts as an undrafted free agent on Saturday, April 29.
"Getting to the NFL has always been a lifelong dream since I was a kid," Anderson said. "This moment in my life is just a culmination of a ton of hard work and having a great support system throughout my journey. I'm extremely grateful for my teammates, coaches, support staff and the community surrounding the Holy Cross football program for helping me get to where I am today."
A team captain and Stats Perform All-America honoree in 2022, Anderson led the Holy Cross defense with a team-leading 86 tackles on the season, with 58 solo tackles. He tallied 14.5 tackles for a loss of 57 yards, including three sacks for a loss of 28 yards.
Anderson helped lift Holy Cross to a historic 2022 season, in which the Crusaders secured their fourth consecutive Patriot League championship. Holy Cross won a program-record 12 games and finished with a 12-1 record, falling in the NCAA FCS quarterfinals to eventual national champion South Dakota State. After posting their first 11-0 regular season since 1991, Holy Cross earned a No. 6 postseason national ranking.
In his Holy Cross career, Anderson played in all 54 contests over the last five seasons, and recorded 232 total career tackles. Anderson is a two-time All-Patriot League first team and Academic All-Patriot League selection, and he earned an All-ECAC nod in 2021.
