Contents
The NFL’s regular season is winding down and the playoffs are just around the corner. So when will the MVP be announced?
Introduction
The National Football League (NFL) Most Valuable Player Award is given by various media and professional organizations to the most outstanding player in the National Football League (NFL) each year. The award was established in 1957, and its original name was the Bert Bell Award, named after Bert Bell, the former owner/coach of the Philadelphia Eagles. The award is currently given by the Associated Press (AP), which has selected an MVP since 1957; since 2011, the AP’s award has been “officially recognized” by the NFL.
Each year, 50 football writers and broadcasters from across the United States vote on behalf of the AP. Each voter selects one player as their MVP choice; points are awarded on a 5–3–1 scale (5 points for a first-place vote, 3 points for a second-place vote, etc.). The player with the most points is then awarded the AP NFL Most Valuable Player Award during a special ceremony at the end of that season.
What is an MVP?
An MVP is a player who is considered to be the best at their respective position. The MVP is usually announced at the end of the season, but sometimes it is given out during the playoffs.
What is the criteria for an MVP?
The Most Valuable Player (MVP) is an annual award given to the player who is deemed to be the “most valuable” during the regular season. The winner is selected by a panel of 50 voters who are asked to rank their top 10 players from the previous season.
The criteria for MVP has changed over time, but the general idea is that it should go to the player who had the biggest impact on his team’s success. In recent years, quarterbacks have been dominant in MVP voting, winning 11 of the last 12 awards.
Who has been the most recent MVPs?
The National Football League Most Valuable Player Award (NFL MVP) is an annual American football award given by various media outlets to a player in the National Football League (NFL) deemed the “most valuable player” for that year. The winner is usually announced at the NFL Honors ceremony held the day before the Super Bowl. The media has named the NFL’s Most Valuable Player 52 times since 1957. Bart Starr was the first NFL player to win the award three times; he accomplished the feat in 1966, 1967, and 1968. Since 1978, only four players have won the award more than once: Peyton Manning (five times), Brett Favre (three times), Tom Brady (two times), and Aaron Rodgers (two times). Of these five, only Manning, Brady, and Rodgers have won on multiple occasions while playing for more than one team.
The most recent recipients are Lamar Jackson of the Baltimore Ravens and Aaron Rodgers of the Green Bay Packers. Jackson became only the second non-quarterback to win since 1966 when he was named MVP for 2019 after leading his team to a league-best 14–2 record; Rodgers had previously been named co-MVP with wide receiver Davante Adams for 2020 after leading his team to a 13–3 record.
