Every season the Pro Football Writers of America vote on the NFL All-Rookie Team plus the Defensive Player of the Year award.
This year, the finalists for DPOY were Micah Parsons of Dallas, Kansas City’s Chris Jones, and Nick Bosa of San Francisco.
Wait, what? No Myles Garrett. Seriously?
It is true. Despite being the highest-rated defensive player in the league this year, Garrett was snubbed for the DPOY consideration.

The award eventually was announced as going to Bosa.
