I assume he means purely, 100% defensive.

I am talking about a player who only plays defense. I know Charles Woodson was a defensive player, but if he did not play some offense and special teams do you really think he would get the trophy.

Someone definitely will. If you had asked the same question ten years ago about a Freshman winning no one would have believed it either.
