Pittsburgh Steelers Running Back Le’Veon Bell Wins Courtyard’s Greatness on the Road™ Award at NFL Honors

PITTSBURGH STEELERS RUNNING BACK LE’VEON BELL WINS COURTYARD’S GREATNESS ON THE ROAD™ AWARD

AT NFL HONORS

 

LE’VEON BELL of the Pittsburgh Steelers is the winner of COURTYARD’S GREATNESS ON THE ROAD AWARD for his franchise record-setting 236 yards rushing and three touchdown performance in a 27-20 victory over the Buffalo Bills. The award was announced at NFL HONORS – a two-hour primetime awards show that will air nationally tonight at 8 PM ET/PT on FOX.

 

Courtyard’s Greatness on the Road Award is given to the player who demonstrates the best performance in a road game during the regular season. NFL Media Analysts selected Le’Veon Bell’s Week 14 play as the pinnacle of “Greatness On The Road.”

 

On the eve of Super Bowl LI, the NFL and THE ASSOCIATED PRESS announced their annual accolades in an awards show saluting the best players, performances and plays from the 2016 season.

 

KEEGAN-MICHAEL KEY, Emmy-award winning actor, writer and creator, hosted the show, and many of the winners were on hand to accept their awards.

 

The newest PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME class was announced and introduced during the show with the Class of 2017 appearing on stage at the Wortham Theater Center in Houston.

 

The prestigious Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award presented by Nationwide, which recognizes a player’s off-the-field community service as well as his playing excellence, and the Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award, as voted by his peers, were among the awards handed out.

 

Seven of the awards were from the AP. These awards are voted on at the end of the regular NFL season by a nationwide media panel of 50 people who regularly cover the league. The ballots are tabulated solely by the AP.

The full list of awards that will be presented is:
