SMU CB Jordan Wyatt named AAC defensive player of week after historic performance

SMU cornerback Jordan Wyatt was named defensive player of the week by the American Athletic Conference on Monday.

Wyatt recorded two defensive touchdowns in SMU's 58-14 win over Stephen F. Austin. The first came on an interception he returned 85 yards to the end zone. The second came after he strip-sacked the SFA quarterback and recovered the fumble in the end zone.

He is the sixth player in FBS history to record touchdowns off of an interception and a fumble in the same game. His four career defensive touchdowns are tied for the active career lead in the FBS.
