Tallahassee, FL - The Tallahassee Quarterback Club (TQC) Foundation, Inc., the Florida-based creator and sponsor of the prestigious Biletnikoff Award, announces that LSU's Ja'Marr Chase is the 2019 winner of the Biletnikoff Award. Tonight, Ja'Marr Chase was presented as the winner on The Home Depot College Football Awards presented by Gildan, which was broadcast live by ESPN from the College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta, Georgia. The other outstanding finalists are CeeDee Lamb of Oklahoma and Michael Pittman, Jr., of USC. 
 
The secure and confidential electronic voting by the distinguished members of the Biletnikoff Award National Selection Committee was conducted from December 2 through December 8, and certified by a prominent CPA firm.

The Biletnikoff Award annually recognizes the season's outstanding FBS receiver in college football. Any player, regardless of position (wide receiver, tight end, slot back, and running back) who catches a pass is eligible for the award. As such, the Biletnikoff Award recognizes college football's outstanding receiver, not merely college football's outstanding wide receiver.  

Ja'Marr Chase's 2019 regular season statistics in 13 wins, including victories over the #3, #4, #7, and two #9 ranked teams: 73 Catches, 1498 Receiving yards, 20.5 Yards/Catch, 18 Touchdowns

Ja'Marr Chase graduated from Archbishop Rummel High School in Metairie, Louisiana 
The semifinalists, finalists, and award recipient are selected by the highly distinguished Biletnikoff Award National Selection Committee, a group of prominent college football journalists, commentators, announcers, Biletnikoff Award winners, and other former receivers. Foundation trustees do not vote and have never voted. For a list of voters, please see BiletnikoffAward.com/voters.
