Versatile Lee

USC sophomore Marqise Lee not only shined as a Biletnikoff Award winning receiver this season, but he also starred as a kickoff returner, runner and even played a snap on defense. Thanks to his diverse skillset, he has been named one of four finalists for the Paul Hornung Award, which recognizes the most versatile player in college football each season.

Lee rushed for 106 yards this season on 12 carries (8.83 yards per carry) and returned 28 kickoffs for 802 yards, including a touchdown against Hawaii in the season opener. He came in as a safety for one snap against Arizona State, which forced the Sun Devils to burn a timeout.

The Trojan Family can vote for Lee to win the Hornung Award and make a difference in the final tally.
