</b>Baylor football senior tight end Michael Trigg has been named a semifinalist for the 2025 Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award, as announced Thursday.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; margin: 0in;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.25pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt; color: black;"> </span></p>

exhibits the enduring characteristics that define Earl Campbell: integrity, performance, teamwork, sportsmanship, drive, community and tenacity to persist as well as determination to overcome adversity and injury in pursuit of reaching goals.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; margin: 0in;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.25pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt; color: black;"> </span></p>

the Bears, ranking among the nation’s top tight ends in all major receiving statistics. At his position, Trigg ranked second nationally with 694 receiving yards, fourth with 50 receptions, and tied for fifth with six touchdowns this year. For his performance
this season, Trigg was named one of three finalists for the John Mackey Award, which honors the nation’s best tight end.</span></p>

single-season in school history, holding the top spot for most receiving yards and receptions by a tight end in a single season and tying for the most touchdowns caught at the position in one year. Trigg now stands atop the BU tight end leaderboard in career
receiving yards (1,089), while ranking second in career receptions (80) and career touchdowns (nine).</span></p>

one of two of tight ends. Additionally, nine quarterbacks, five running backs, five wide receivers and an offensive lineman were named to this year’s list. Earlier this season, Trigg was tabbed to the award’s honorable mention list in Week Six after snagging
