Clarification of NFL Comeback Player of the Year award criteria focuses on player overcoming injury or illness, highlighted by Joe Flacco’s win
Cleveland Browns quarterback Joe Flacco won the AP Comeback Player of the Year award last season after taking over as the team’s starting quarterback. Flacco had struggled in previous seasons as a backup for the Broncos and Jets before joining the Browns. The AP has clarified that the award is meant to honor players who have overcome illness, injury, or other circumstances that caused them to miss playing time the previous season. This clarification came after Flacco won the award, leading to a preference for players like Damar Hamlin, Tua Tagovailoa, Lamar Jackson, or Matthew Stafford who had missed time due to injuries or medical emergencies.
