GLENDALE, Ariz. — University of Colorado sophomore tailback Jarek Broussard was named one of three annual recipients of the Mayo Clinic Comeback Player of the Year Award, the tri-coordinators of the award announced Saturday morning.

The other two recipients for the 2020 honor were Kenneth Horsey, a sophomore offensive lineman for the University of Kentucky, and Silas Kelly, a senior linebacker at Coastal Carolina University.
