Vikings extend cornerstone tackle Lukas Holub

Before announcing the contract extension of quarterback Ben Holmes, the Vienna Vikings had already secured one of the most important players responsible for protecting him. Offensive tackle Lukas Holub will remain with the team for the first season of the Vikings in The League Europe.

Keeping Holub ensures stability and strength on the offensive line.

Protecting the quarterback and opening lanes

For several years, Holub has drawn attention with his strong performances at tackle. His main responsibility is clear: protect quarterback Ben Holmes and create running lanes for the team’s running backs.

With his size, strength, and technique, Holub plays a key role in the Vikings’ offensive system.

All-Star recognition at a young age

At just 23 years old, Holub has already established himself as one of the top offensive linemen in Europe. His performances last season earned him a spot on the First Team All-Star selection.

Standing 1.96 meters tall and weighing 130 kilograms, Holub combines physical power with mobility and football intelligence.

A key piece for the upcoming season

As the Vikings prepare for the new season, Holub will once again be an essential part of the offense. His presence on the line provides confidence, protection, and consistency.

By extending Lukas Holub, the Vienna Vikings secure a cornerstone player who will continue to anchor their offensive front.
