As we head down the final stretch of the preseason, more and more award watch lists are rolling out; today, Will Levis was named to a pair of them. Kentucky’s senior quarterback is now in the running for the Manning Award and the College Football Performance Awards (CFPA) National Performer of the Year Trophy. Earlier this summer, he was named to the watch lists for the Davey O’Brien, Maxwell, and Walter Camp Player of the Year Awards.
In his first season at Kentucky after transferring from Penn State, Levis threw for 2,826 yards and 24 touchdowns, while rushing for nine more.
