The numbers new Miami Hurricanes quarterback D’Eriq King recorded in 2018 were comparable to other dual-threat QBs that won the Heisman Trophy.

Multiple dual-threat quarterbacks have won the Heisman Trophy in the last 10 years. In the modern era of college football, the first true dual-threat QB to win the Heisman Trophy was Charlie Ward of Florida State in 1992. New Miami Hurricanes QB D’Eriq King is one of the best dual-threat QBs currently playing college football.

In the 21st century, seven dual three QBs have won the Heisman Trophy.
