TCU safety Trevon Moehrig has been named a second-team All-American by the Football Writers Association of America.
One of three finalists for the Paycom Jim Thorpe Award, presented to the nation's top defensive back, Moehrig has also received All-America honors from the Associated Press, Sporting News and ESPN.
Moehrig was selected First-Team All-Big 12 by the conference head coaches for the second straight season. He had the game-saving interception with a one-handed snag in the end zone in the final minutes of a 29-22 win over No. 15 Oklahoma State on Dec. 5. The junior from Spring Branch, Texas, ranks among the national leaders at 1.1 passes defended per game (two interceptions, nine pass breakups). His 11 passes defended trail only teammate Tre'Vius Hodges-Tomlinson (13) in the Big 12. He placed third on the Horned Frogs with 47 tackles, including 2.0 for loss.
Moehrig took part in nine takeaways over the last two seasons which is tied for second in the FBS.
Pro Football Focus ranked Moehrig as the nation's No. 1 safety in 2019 with the third-most valuable season in the PFF College era.
