WACO, Texas -- Baylor football standout Michael Trigg was named national Tight End of the Week by the John Mackey Award, it was announced on Wednesday afternoon.



Trigg, a native of Tampa, Fla., had career highs in catches (seven) and yards (99), adding a TD catch, in the season lid-lifter vs. Auburn on Friday night. A member of the Mackey Award Watch List, Trigg is a preseason second-team All-Big 12 selection by Athlon.



Over his two-year Baylor career, Trigg has made 37 catches over 12 games, with seven starts. He has 494 yards receiving and four TDs in his BU career, and own 65 catches for 824 yards and nine TDs over his career, which included stops at USC and Ole Miss.



A former top-150 recruit out of Carrollwood Day High School, Trigg had a splashing debut for the Bears in 2024, totaling 30 catches for 395 yards and three scores.



Baylor (0-1) will travel up I-35 to face No. 17/16 SMU on Saturday at 11 a.m. on The CW and the Baylor Sports Media Network.
