Inside linebacker Brandon Marshall was voted by the Denver chapter of the Pro Football Writers of America as the 2015 Darrent Williams Good Guy Award winner. Marshall will be in consideration for the PFWA’s national award, given out after the season.
Marshall, the ninth-consecutive defensive Broncos player to win the award, will be given a plaque to honor his enthusiasm and cooperation with the media. The last player to win it was former defensive tackle Terrance Knighton, now with the Washington Redskins.
The 2015 award is given on the eighth anniversary of the death of Darrent Williams, the former Broncos’ cornerback who was shot and killed in a drive-by shooting after his second season with the Broncos.
