The first-ever Heisman Trophy winner played for what NFL team?
Answer None
Jay Berwanger won the first Heisman - which was called the “Downtown Athletic Trophy” at the time - and was picked #1 overall by the Eagles. However, he didn’t sign with the league, because he could make more money working for a Chicago Rubber company.
