Dom Hyam was one of only three outfield players to play every minute in the Championship this season.
The defender played a key role at Ewood Park again this term as Rovers took their play-off push to the final day.
Hyam formed an effective partnership with Danny Batth at the heart of defence while Hayden Carter spent several months on the sidelines with a knee injury.
Rovers kept 15 clean sheets in the league this season and conceded 48 times – a total which only five clubs could better in the division.
Hyam also chipped in with a couple of goals during the victories against Middlesbrough and Millwall.
During his three seasons at Ewood Park so far, the 29-year-old has racked up 134 appearances in all competitions which averages at more than 44 per campaign.
Bristol City pair Zak Vyner and Jason Knight were the only other outfield players who played every possible minute this season.
Three goalkeepers also achieved the feat. City’s Max O’Leary, Swansea’s Lawrence Vigouroux and Stoke’s Viktor Johansson were all ever-present between the sticks.
Digging deeper into Hyam’s stats this season, the former Coventry man made more clearances than any other member of the squad in the league (352).
Victor Palsson, Julio Pleguezuelo and Liam Lindsay were the only players in the division who averaged more clearances per game than the Rovers man.
Hyam also made the joint-most blocks in the squad along with Sondre Tronstad (53) as Rovers defended their penalty area resiliently.
The centre-back also ranked highly in the squad for his tackling, winning 67 per cent of his challenges. Only Callum Brittain, Owen Beck and Ryan Hedges had a higher success rate.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, Hyam won the most aerial duels in the squad (173) and also had the third highest success rate (60.1 per cent), behind only Carter and Batth.
Elsewhere in the squad, Aynsley Pears played the second-highest number of minutes in the league (3,600).
The goalkeeper started 40 league games this season before picking up an Achilles injury, which saw Balazs Toth get a run in the side for the final weeks of the campaign.
Skipper Lewis Travis racked up the third-highest number of minutes in the league (3,216), including 37 starts.
Midfield partner Tronstad and Tyrhys Dolan also ranked highly in the list, with 3,130 and 3,175 minutes under their belts respectively.
Batth was the only other member of the Rovers squad to surpass 3,000 minutes in the Championship this term - an impressive effort from the defender given his previous season at Norwich, in which opportunities proved hard to come by.
