Carolina linebacker Thomas Davis has won the Good Guy Award from the Professional Football Writers of America for his consistent cooperation with the media.
Davis, who helped the Panthers reach the Super Bowl, was honored by PFWA on Tuesday.
The Good Guy Award is given to a NFL player for his qualities and professional style in helping pro football writers do their jobs. The award was first given by the PFWA in 2005.
''Davis tackles questions the same way he does ball carriers - direct and to the point,'' said Joe Person, who covers the Panthers for the Charlotte Observer.
