Which brings up some controversy with Eli Manning not be nominated to enter.
The MVP race is considered the closest MVP race since 2016 when Atlanta Falcons’ QB Matt Ryan beat New England Patriots’ QB Tom Brady.
Randy Moss is battling cancer and the ceremony gave him a moment which was cool to watch. He couldn’t make it to the official ceremony but he gave away the comeback player of the year to Joe Burrow from home. Making it his second time winning the comeback player of the year.
I am not sure if winning the comeback player of the year twice is a good thing since it means you have had season ending injuries twice, but nothing to be down about at all. Speaking that Joe Burrow was nominated to win the MVP, comeback player of the year, and offensive player of the year showing the caliber of season that he had.
