How NFL Awards are Voted on?
NFL awards are voted on by the Associated Press.
But for the upcoming NFL Honors, AP will implement a new voting system.
This year a nationwide panel of 50 sports journalists who cover the NFL will have the opportunity to rank their top five picks for MVP and their top three for all other awards. Instead of only being able to choose one for each award the year before.
The process allows AP to accurately name runner ups and third place finishers.
NFL Awards 2022 Finalists
Before the start of every NFL season, the best online sportsbooks offer odds to fans to bet on the NFL awards.
Some of the most bet on awards include MVP, Coach of the Year and Comeback Player of the Year.
