The Pro Football Writers Association of America is releasing their various annual awards, and it should surprise nobody that Kansas City Chiefs safety Eric Berry has been named their Comeback Player of the Year for the 2015 season. They do not list any other alternates. The Associated Press will also hand out a Comeback Player of the Year Award, likely as part of the NFL Honors program the night before the Super Bowl.
Berry developed Hodgkin's Lymphoma last year, and missed the last month of the season after a cancerous mass was found in his chest. He had been involved in a collision with an Oakland Raiders player, and noticed chest pain after the hit.
