Miami Defensive back Bryce Fitzgerald is in the top 10 nationally in interceptions and wide receiver Malachi Toney has been a breakout star since the 27-24 season-opening win over Notre Dame. Fitzergald and Toney were named to the "On3 2025 Midseason True Freshman All-American Team" on Monday.
Fitzgerald has five tackles and is tied for seventh nationally with three interceptions, despite not starting a game and playing limited snaps in 2025. The biggest play by Fitzgerald was a 43-yard interception return that immediately preceded a touchdown reception by Toney versus Florida State.
