Boston College Football Impresses at 2026 Panini Senior Bowl Practice: The Rundown

In this story:
It has been quite a long time — or what is starting to feel like a long time — since players from the Boston College football program suited up in full pads on live television.
This week, however, marked the official practice week for the 2026 Panini Senior Bowl — the premier annual college football all-star game for NFL draft-eligible seniors — which four former Eagles were invited to after the 2025 season ended.
Those four are defensive end Quintayvious Hutchins, wide receiver Lewis Bond, and offensive linemen Jude Bowry and Logan Taylor.
The Senior Bowl is not until Saturday, Jan. 31, but over the past 24 hours, all four players have been on the field in Mobile, Ala., to showcase their skills in one-on-one drills and half-speed team periods. They have also participated in pre- and post-practice interviews with media in attendance.
There is likely a trace of bittersweetness for BC fans watching these former players as they prepare for the next level, knowing their time on the Heights is over, but there is some honor in seeing brief clips of them going head to head with some of the nation’s top draft-eligible talent.
Check out some of the clips that emerged from X (formerly known as Twitter) that highlight Hutchins, Bond, Bowry, and Taylor.

What's more? It turns out that Boston College football's new general manager, Kenyatta Watson, made the trip down to South Alabama to check in with the group.

Watson is likely down south for recruiting purposes, but it certainly stands out as an extremely selfless gesture — especially considering Watson did not recruit or technically know any of these players personally until this past month.
The Rundown for Thursday, Jan. 29:
- Jude Bowry had a wild comparison in response to a question about if he will be able to line up on either side of the offensive line for his future NFL team.
