TCU safety Tejay Johnson already has his name on watch lists for the Lott Trophy and Bronko Nagurski Trophy. Johnson is also a nominee for the Allstate AFCA Good Works Team and Lowe's Senior CLASS Award. Now, he has been added to Thorpe Award Watch List.

From TCU Media Relations:

TCU preseason All-America safety Tejay Johnson has been named to the watch list for the 2010 Jim Thorpe Award, presented to the nation’s best defensive back.

The Jim Thorpe Award is named after arguably history's greatest all-around athlete. Recognized in the Pro Football Hall of Fame simply as The Legend, Thorpe also played professional baseball and won Olympic gold medals in the decathlon and pentathlon.

The Jim Thorpe Award Watch List is determined by analysis of the preseason All-America teams listed in at least six college football magazines.
