Wide receivers have rarely won the Heisman Trophy.
Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson has all but wrapped up the award, but Oklahoma's Dede Westbrook is starting to get some attention.
Westbrook began the season slowly, with 17 catches for 154 yards in the first three games.
[...] he has been all but unstoppable.
Alabama's Amari Cooper was the last receiver to be a Heisman finalist back in 2014.
The AP's Heisman panel is still locked in on Lamar Jackson at the top of the charts, but more players are getting attention down-ballot:
The Cougars have the best defense in the American Athletic Conference at 4.64 yards allowed per play.
Foreman tied a Texas record with his 11th straight 100-yard rushing game last week, matching 1977 Heisman winner Earl Campbell.
The Jayhawks allow 5.27 yards per carry, second-worst in the Big 12.
Westbrook is tied for second in the country in yards receiving per game at 125.4 and in touchdown catches with 14.
