Navy safety Seth English named on the 2025 Comeback Player of the Year Award watch list

Navy football's junior safety, Seth English, has been named to the watch list for the Comeback Player of the Year Award , a significant honor for the 6-foot-3, 199-pound athlete from Gainesville, Florida. After missing the entire 2024 season due to a knee injury, English has demonstrated remarkable resilience and determination in his return to the field. This recognition underscores his hard work in recovery and his potential to make a significant impact for the Navy Midshipmen in the upcoming season.

English's journey to this point has not been easy. The talented safety graduated from Jefferson High School in Lafayette, Indiana, in 2023, but suffered a serious knee injury that sidelined him for the entire year. Despite this setback, English remained focused on his rehabilitation, demonstrating the grit and dedication necessary to earn a spot on this prestigious list. His inclusion alongside other inspiring college football players showcases his ability to overcome challenges and come back even stronger.
