NFL.com: Michigan Football's Jabrill Peppers a Heisman Contender in 2016

Michigan football's Swiss Army knife Jabrill Peppers has received a ton of praise thrown his way in his young career dating back to his high school days.

Last season was his first full year of college football and he, for the most part, backed up the hype in almost every way possible. Peppers was a playmaker on defense, offense and in the return game and was arguably one of Michigan's most valuable assets.

The hype around him has continued to grow and some believe he is a Heisman Trophy contender. NFL.com's Chase Goodbread lists him as one of the 16 players to watch for the award in 2016.
