Oklahoma QB Baker Mayfield is considered by many to be one of the top Heisman Trophy contenders this season.
However, the Sooner star wants to draw your attention to his teammate, WR Dede Westbrook:

Westbrook caught four passes for 111 yards and a touchdown (a 69-yard beauty) before being knocked out of today’s game with an injury as the Sooners clinched the Big 12 title.
For the season, the senior receiver has 16 touchdown catches and nearly 1,500 receiving yards. He’s clearly made Mayfield look good this season and Mayfield wants to make sure Heisman voters appreciate that fact.
