MEMPHIS, Tenn. – University of Memphis junior quarterback Seth Henigan was named to the Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award Watchlist on Thursday.
The Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award recognizes the top offensive player in Division I football who also exhibits the enduring characteristics that define Earl Campbell: integrity, performance, teamwork, sportsmanship, drive, community and tenacity; specifically, tenacity to persist and determination to overcome adversity and injury in pursuit of reaching goals. In addition, the nominee must meet one or more of the following criteria: born in Texas and/or graduated from a Texas High School and/or played at a Texas-based junior college or currently playing at Texas DI four-year college.
The honor is the fourth this preseason for Henigan, who was also named to the Manning Award Preseason Watch List, the Davey O'Brien Preseason Watch List and the Maxwell Award Watch List.
In 2022, Henigan completed 286-of-446 passes for 22 touchdowns, while also rushing for 289 yards and four scores. The junior will be the youngest third year starting quarterback (20 years old) in the FBS this coming season.
For his career, Henigan ranks fifth all-time in Memphis history in attempts (839), completions (521), passing yards (6,893), passing touchdowns (47) and completion percentage (.621).
