There isn't on currently.. Charles Woodson was the last on the roster.

That is if you are talking about the given out by the Heisman Trust.

Historically, I know Hornung won it in 1956 and Ty Detmer won it in 1990. 1941 winner Bruce Smith played for the Packers, as did Danny Wueffel (1994). At one point they had signed Eric Crouch (2001) to give him a shot as a returner but he didn't make the roster. Rashaan Salaam (1996) was on the PS at one point as well.

Others I can think of that might be available.. Troy Smith, QB. Where is Leinhart these days.. would have to be a QB.. since the trust apparently thinks only RB and QB's are worthy.

Omaha Nighthawks[edit]

Smith was signed by the Omaha Nighthawks of the United Football League on September 2, 2011.[27] An injury to fellow Heisman Trophy-winner Eric Crouch in the season opener, opened the door for Smith to become the starter,[28] though the Nighthawks decided to go with Jeremiah Masoli who had been with the team longer.

Smith's first UFL start came in Omaha's final game of the season, a 25-19 loss to the Sacramento Mountain Lions in the consolation round of the postseason. In the game, Smith completed 17-of-33 passes for 191 yards, two touchdowns and one interception, including a 81-yard touchdown pass to Chad Lucas.[29]

Pittsburgh Steelers[edit]

The Pittsburgh Steelers signed Smith on January 20, 2012, and released him on June 25, 2012.

Current Status[edit]

Smith is currently a free agent. He worked out at Ohio State's pro day, but thus far his return to the NFL is purely speculation.
