Michael Penix is the Heisman leader

At the season’s unofficial midway point, Washington quarterback Michael Penix — an Indiana transfer — has emerged as a fairly heavy favorite to take home the 2023 Heisman Trophy.

According to DraftKings Sportsbook, Penix is -150 to win the award. Oklahoma quarterback Dillon Gabriel (+800) is the closest player within shouting distance.

2022 Heisman winner Caleb Williams saw his hopes of becoming just the second two-time winner in the award’s history take a huge hit after a dismal performance last week against Notre Dame. The USC quarterback is now the fifth choice at +1400.
