FCS: Jerry Rice Award September Front-Runners

September has passed, and some FCS teams played as many as five games during the first stretch of the season. So if the season ended now, which candidates would lead the voting for this level's top four awards — Walter Payton Award (top offensive player), Buck Buchanan Award (top defensive player), Jerry Rice Award (top freshman) and the Eddie Robinson Award (best coaching job)? Our panel of nine tuned-in voters put together a ballot and ranked the candidates 1 through 5. Here, we highlight the Jerry Rice Award leader.

Even with several great candidates, it was hard to ignore the job Josh Davis has done at Weber State. His team needed some new names to emerge to propel the Wildcats back to the pedestal it was last year, when it broke a school record for wins. The redshirt freshman is second in the national rankings in all-purpose yardage (219.3 per game), and he's rushed for his 499 yards and 4 TDs in just three games — and he's averaging more than 17 yards per punt return. His top competitor for the award was Albany's Dev Holmes, who also is putting up impressive receiving numbers.
