Malcolm Mitchell, currently gearing up for the NFL Draft, will receive the Atlanta Sports Council's Community Spirit Award. He'll be recognized Feb. 25 at the 11th annual Atlanta Sports Awards, which are held at the Fox Theatre.
The award goes "to an individual with local ties who is actively involved in the community and epitomizes the highest standards for leadership, sportsmanship and integrity." The announcement comes one day after another former 'Dawg, Thomas Davis, won the NFLPA's Byron "Whizzer" White Award.
