An Unusual Award For Garrison Hearst To Win Twice

Garrison Hearst graduated from the University of Georgia and being the third overall pick of the 1993 NFL Draft, much was expected of him. He had a productive career, primarily with the Arizona/Phoenix Cardinals and the San Francisco 49ers, but hold the unusual distinction of winning one award twice in his career.

In 1995 Hearst shared the NFL Comeback Player of the Year Award with Indianapolis Colts quarterback Jim Harbaugh, then six years later in 2001 he won the Comeback Award again – this time with the San Francisco 49ers.
