Stingley might not win the Heisman Trophy as a defensive player, but The Jim Thorpe award is very possible.

The Thorpe Award is awarded to the nation’s best defensive back, and Stingley will absolutely be in the conversation for that title throughout the entire season.

Tyrann has a million reasons to not want Stingley to win the award.
