As we enter the final week of the NFL regular season most of the individual player award races are over.
I would be surprised if at this point the players below didn’t win these awards:
MVP – Patrick Mahomes
Offensive Player of the Year – Justin Jefferson
Defensive Player of the Year – Nick Bosa
Defensive Rookie of the Year – Sauce Gardner.
While those awards races are probably over, I think Offensive Rookie of the Year and Comeback Player of the Year awards are still up for grabs. Recency bias is a real thing in awards voting, and players who finish strong or have big performances down the stretch have a better chance of staying in the front of voters’ minds when it comes to filling out ballots.
