Heisman Trophy favorite Joe Burrow will arrive in New York for Saturday's ceremony with a few new lines on his resume.
The LSU quarterback was honored Thursday at the 2019 Home Depot College Football Awards with the Maxwell and Davey O'Brien awards, given to the best overall player and best quarterback in college football, respectively.
In both cases, he beat out a pair of fellow Heisman finalists to win. Oklahoma quarterback Jalen Hurts was a finalist for both awards, while Ohio State defensive end Chase Young (Maxwell) and Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields (O'Brien) were finalists for the ones at their positions.
