NFL Awards Ceremony 2024: Lamar Jackson to Win MVP? Expected Winners to Be Honored for Marvelous Season

The NFL honors ballots are finally here. Throughout the year, we’ve been making speculations, voting personalities left and right. Some thought the MVP would be Patrick Mahomes, and others said that it would be Brock Purdy, but the reality couldn’t be further from these statements. Everyone knew who the comeback player of the year would be, but what about the other categories?

Everyone is guessing who the MVP, rookie of the year, or defensive player of the year might be. In the same spirit, MLFootball on X did its fair share and posted a list of ballots similar to many other accounts on the social media platform. Let’s have a look.

A look at the honored players for this year’s NFL Awards Ceremony

According to MLFootball’s post on X, the MVP should go to Lamar Jackson. They also think the Offensive Player of the Year (OPoy) might go to Christian McCaffrey. It would not be a far-fetched idea to think that Maxx Crosby would find a place as the Defensive Player of the Year (DPoY).

The NFL community is unequivocal about the fact that CJ Stroud is hands down the best contender for the Offensive Rookie of the Year award. Meanwhile, the Defensive Rookie of the Year might go to the LA Rams DT Kobie Turner. Also, the Comeback Player of the Year might go to Damar Hamlin, considering the adversity that he has overcome.

There are many NFL pundits with many lists; however, this one seems more realistic.

A tally from CBS tells a different story, however, with a couple of similar elements in the mix.

In almost all the cases Lamar Jackson is ahead by 30 votes as far as the MVP for the season is concerned. Also, according to them, the OPoY winner would be Christian McCaffrey (26 votes).

Also, the CBS crew thinks that TJ Watt should be the Defensive Player of the Year with 17 votes. The Rookie of the Year undoubtedly goes to CJ Stroud (28 votes). The Texans DE Will Anderson Jr. leads the Defensive Rookie of the Year with 17 votes.
