Trent Walker Named To Biletnikoff Award Preseason Watch List
August 06, 2025 | Football
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Oregon State wide receiver Trent Walker was named to the Biletnikoff Award Preseason Award Watch List, as announced by the Tallahassee Quarterback Club (TQC) Foundation, Inc., on Wednesday.
The Biletnikoff Award annually recognizes the college football season's outstanding FBS receiver. 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.
The Biletnikoff Award's semifinalists, three finalists, and award recipient are selected by the highly distinguished Biletnikoff Award National Selection Committee, a group of 600 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.
Walker, a redshirt senior from Portland, is coming off one of the best seasons by a wide receiver in Oregon State history. He caught 81 passes, tied for the seventh most in program history, for 901 yards and two touchdowns.
He had at least three receptions in all 12 games. Walker's career-high 12 receptions against Washington State are the eighth most in Oregon State single-season history and his career-best 151 receiving yards against San Jose State rank in the top-40 for a single game by a Beaver.
Two Oregon State receivers have previously earned the prestigious Biletnikoff Award. Mike Haas was presented the award in 2005, while Brandin Cooks received the honor in 2013.
