In 1971 Chuck Howley of the Dallas Cowboys won the Super Bowl MVP for Super Bowl V, intercepting two passes and recovering a fumble in the Cowboys 16-13 loss to the Baltimore Colts. It was the first time that a defensive player received the honor and the first and so far only time a player from the losing team won the award.

The first three Heismans all went to non-quarterbacks: Jay Berwanger, Larry Kelley and Clint Frank. The first quarterback to win it was Davey O'Brien in 1938.
