Edward Smith (June 17, 1913 – January 29, 1998) was an American football running back in the National Football League for the Boston Redskins and Green Bay Packers. He played college football at New York University. The Heisman Trophy is modeled after him. Since he only played 10 games in the NFL and did not end up having impressive stats so it is not certain why he was chosen to be on the Heisman Trophy. Some say that he was at "the right place at the right time" as he put up pretty nice stats in the year the Heisman Trophy was made.
