Reggie Bush seeks to have Heisman Trophy, college stats reinstated

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Former Southern California running back Reggie Bush has released a statement seeking to have his Heisman Trophy returned and collegiate statistics reinstated.

Bush issued a statement Thursday, which also marked the first day that current college athletes could benefit off their names, image and likeness.

“It is my strong belief that I won the Heisman trophy ‘solely’ due to my hard work and dedication on the football field and it is also my firm belief that my records should be reinstated,” Bush said.

Bush gave up his Heisman in 2010, becoming the first winner in the awards long history to do that.
