Bears Center Drew Dalman Named as Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award Nominee
The Chicago Bears have chosen center Drew Dalman as their nominee for this year's prestigious Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award. The NFL announced its nominees on Wednesday, with one representative from each team selected.
Dalman, 27, has been a crucial addition to the Bears' offense, playing a pivotal role in transforming their struggling line into a force to be reckoned with. Consistently ranking among the top 10 by Pro Football Focus is a testament to his dedication and work ethic. What's more impressive is that he's remained on the field for every snap this season, a feat no other Bears player can claim.
The Bears' nomination comes after a storied history of producing deserving candidates for the award. Notably, D'Andre Swift was nominated last season, while T.J. Edwards, DeAndre Houston-Carson, and Roquan Smith took home the honor in previous years. The only team without an Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award winner is currently the Bears.
This year's nominees include some of the most talented players in the NFC North: Jordan Love of the Packers, Derrick Barnes of the Lions, and Brian O'Neill of the Vikings. Khalil Mack, a former Bear who now suits up for the Chargers, also made the list. Josh Allen, last season's winner, is nominated again.
The Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award has been honoring outstanding sportsmanship in the NFL since 2014. This year's nominees will be decided by a vote among NFL players, coaches, and executives.
