AUSTIN, Texas – Texas Football defensive back Brandon Jones was named a semifinalist for the 2019 Lott IMPACT Trophy, the Pacific Club IMPACT Foundation announced Thursday.
The award, now in its 16th season, recognizes the player that makes the biggest IMPACT on his team, both on and off the field.
