Cleveland Browns quarterback Joe Flacco narrowly defeated Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin for the Associated Press' Comeback Player of the Year award last Thursday.
On Monday, Peter King of NBC Sports called that result "absurd" in the latest edition of his Football Morning in America column.
"It's ridiculous that Joe Flacco, who came back from sitting on his couch for two-and-a-half months, won Comeback Player over Damar Hamlin, who came back from having to be resuscitated back to life on a football field last January. What's stronger than ridiculous? Absurd? Okay. It was absurd.
