ESPN is the latest publication to recognize the talent of junior safety Trevon Moehrig, who may well need a bigger trophy case after the fall season.
Moehrig has been named to five preseason All-America teams this year and is on watch lists for the Chuck Bednarik Award, Bronko Nagurski Trophy and Jim Thorpe Award. With his bench of 400 pounds, squat of 600, power clean of 420 and vertical of 38 inches, the 6-foot-2, 202-pound Moehrig also appears on Bruce Feldman’s College Football Freaks List.
A junior from Spring Branch, Texas, Moehrig was rated last year by Pro Football Focus as the nation’s top safety.
