With the NFL regular season coming to an end, it seemed like a great time to hand out awards for the Texas A&M Aggies currently in the NFL. In 2023, there were about 30 Aggies on an NFL roster in some way or another, in addition to a handful employed on NFL coaching staffs prepping for the upcoming off-season and playoffs.
We’ll be handing out 5 awards: Rookie of the Year, Offensive Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, MVP, and Coach of the Year. For the current players, my criteria are that they spent 2 full non-redshirt (regular) seasons playing, or they ended their playing career at Texas A&M. Kyler Murray would not be eligible. Still, Kyle Allen and Trevor Knight would be eligible.
This year was a little more challenging in some areas than others, but we’ll name a winner and a runner-up no matter how far behind they were.
Drum roll, please…
