Arizona Cardinals Kyler Murray received a number of accolades for his play in the 2020 season. He was a Pro Bowler. He was twice Offensive Player of the Week. He was named the Snickers Hungriest Player of the Week as well.
He has received yet another.
He was named “Hungriest Player of the Year” by Snickers.
The “Hungriest Player” program spanned 14 weeks of the 20-21 NFL season and rewarded players who showed a hunger for more with exceptional plays or moments on the field. Each week, a different player was passed a jewel-encrusted chain displaying the word “HUNGRY” and the iconic “S” from the SNICKERS brand logo.
He got to show it off after Week 10.
Now that the season is over, he will be donating the one-of-a-kind chain, valued at over $60,000, to benefit heroes on the frontlines in Arizona, including nurses and other essential workers.
“It’s a huge deal for me not only to win this award and wear the chain, but to be able to give back to our heroes working on the frontlines in the beautiful state of Arizona, it means so much to me,” Murray told Justin Melo in an interview for Cards Wire. “The aspect of this award that allows me to give back to the people is definitely the biggest aspect to me.”
It is just yet another award for the Cardinals quarterback.
