ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) -- Jabrill Peppers' mother will join him at the Heisman Trophy ceremony on Saturday night in New York.
 
The Michigan star won the Hornung Award as the nation's most versatile college football player. On defense, the 6-foot-1, 205-pounder usually lined up as a linebacker after spending most of the previous two years as a defensive back.
 
Michigan's Charles Woodson is the only player to win the Heisman while primarily playing defense -- though, like Peppers, Woodson also played on offense and special teams.
