Defensive Rookie of the Year: Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell had an impressive first seven games before being demoted due to injuries.

he came back stronger than ever after that injury and showed the league who's boss I'm not surprised he won comeback player of the year 
3 INTs in one game? only a few guys can say that 
DeVonta Smith leading the team in receiving yards is no joke either, dude was on fire 
love how Cooper DeJean played multiple positions too, he's like the ultimate team player 
10 players were injured in the season finale, including Nakobe Dean who suffered a re-aggravated patellar tendon injury 
. Now he'll have to deal with offseason surgery and rehab 
. Not ideal for their playoff run next year 
. And can we talk about Jalyx Hunt's break-out season? He was on FIRE 
. Cooper DeJean's versatility on defense is insane 
. And Moro Ojomo's clutch play in that 4th-and-1 situation still gives me chills 
. What a season!
. And can we talk about how Jalyx Hunt just exploded onto the scene? 6.5 sacks and 3 INTs are no joke 
.
That block was pure gold. And Jordan Davis' block that led to a touchdown return still gives me chills 
. And can we talk about Dallas Goedert's adorable celebration with his baby? 
That's what football is all about, right?
And can we give a shout-out to Jihaad Campbell for staying calm under pressure? Moro Ojomo's clutch performance in that 4th-and-1 situation is EVERYTHING 
, 6.5 sacks in one game? That's insane!
, his ability to play multiple positions is seriously underrated.
! He may have had limited time on the field, but he made the most of it and proved himself as a valuable contributor. And Jihaad Campbell's maturity and resilience in the face of injury are truly admirable 
.
. Cooper DeJean's versatility is another reason why he's killing it as a defensive player 
, and Jordan Davis' block for TD will go down as one of the greatest plays of the season 
.
. moro ojomo's clutch performance against the packers was insane 
I'm so hyped about Nakobe Dean coming back from injury and still crushing it on the field! His dedication is truly inspiring 
AND Dallas Goedert's baby celebration is just too cute for words 
.
. I'm not saying Smith is overrated or anything (although he does have that annoying smile 
), but can we please give credit to the guys who brought home the Ws? Like, Cooper DeJean for all his tackles and stuff 
.
Dean had some great games but Hunt was like a different player after week 7 
What about Tyler Conklin? He's always grinding and making plays, I thought for sure he'd get more recognition 
moro ojomo's clutch play in that 4th-and-1 was insane 
And can we talk about Jalyx Hunt for a sec? The dude just exploded onto the scene and has been making waves ever since 
. Nakobe Dean's return from injury was a huge deal 
. It's just a title to get more fans on his side.
. He had a great start to the season, but then got hurt and didn't do anything for the rest of it.
. And Jalyx Hunt just kinda showed up in Week 7 and was like "Hey, I'm here" 
.
. And what's with all the love for Drew Kendall, the rookie who got to sit on the bench most of the time? 
.
... who knows, maybe it'll be the highlight reel of the whole season 
.
