Kentucky.com’s high school football defensive player of the week (Week 5)
This week’s poll has ended. Congratulations to Cain Grim of Paintsville, our Week 5 Kentucky.com Defensive Player of the Week.
Thanks for voting. A new poll will come out next week.
Each week, we highlight some of the best high school football individual performances in Kentucky for the Kentucky.com Defensive Player of the Week. They were selected by digital sports writer Jared Peck (@HLpreps) via stats uploaded to KHSAA.org by midnight each Monday or game boxes submitted to jpeck@herald-leader.com on the night of the game.
Each week’s top five will be announced on Twitter at @HLpreps and the winner will be listed in our “Friday Night Lights” preview story online and with each subsequent week’s poll.
Here are this week’s nominees presented in alphabetical order. Vote for your favorite. Voting ends at noon Friday.
