The nominees for the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award, which recognizes a player's commitment to making an impact off the field, were released Tuesday.

One player from each team is nominated for what the league deems its "most prestigious honor."

"These 32 outstanding men are making a valuable difference in their communities every day and we are proud to celebrate their special gifts and humanitarianism," commissioner Roger Goodell said.

The annual award is part of the NFL Honors presentation, a primetime awards special to be broadcast by CBS on Feb.
