Each year, the Brandon Burlsworth Foundation gives a trophy to the most outstanding walk-on in the country.
The trophy was created in 2010 to honor former All-American Razorback walk-on, Brandon Burlsworth, who was tragically killed just 10 days after he was drafted to the Indianapolis Colts in the third round in 1999.
