The Super Bowl might be the biggest thing on the NFL calendar this weekend, but it’s definitely not the only thing — the league is also going to be handing out its biggest awards. The awards will be given out during the 10th annual “NFL Honors” show, which will be airing the night before Super Bowl LV.
This year, that means if you want to know who’s going to win MVP, you’ll need to tune in to the show, which will be airing on Saturday at 9 p.m. ET on CBS. The show is actually pre-recorded, so you might see a few of the awards leak out before you’re able to watch the event on television. During the two-hour ceremony, which will be hosted by Steve Harvey, the NFL will be unveiling the winner of every award from MVP to Comeback Player of the Year to Offensive and Defensive Rookies of the Year.
Although Aaron Rodgers is the heavy favorite to take home MVP, there will definitely be some mystery surrounding a few of the awards heading into the broadcast. For instance, the Coach of the Year award is completely up in the air and that’s because you can make a compelling argument for nearly six different guys to take home the award, including Cleveland’s Kevin Stefanski, Buffalo’s Sean McDermott and Washington’s Ron Rivera.
The 2021 Pro Football Hall of Fame class will also be revealed during the ceremony. One person who will definitely be getting in is Peyton Manning and that fact alone should make the show worth watching. To find out who will be joining Manning, you’ll need to tune in.
Here’s a rundown of major honors set to be awarded Saturday night, plus details on how to tune in:
