Damar Hamlin is considered a lock for comeback player of the year, and deservedly so- it’s amazing he’s still playing football after what happened to him. But I understand the critics too, when he does play he’s a backup and the whole thing feels kinda weird. I think the easy way to fix this is to make it two different awards. One for most improved player and another for coming back from injury. CBPOTY can be either right now and I think that’s where the issue comes from. This way someone like Josh Dobbs could win an award for most improved, and Damar Hamlin gets an award for an impressive comeback for an injury.
Not a bad idea tbh, but this is reddit, so be prepared to have 30 people shit on you, and then mods to delete this thread.
Hey, you were right!
Agreed…who is most improved this year?
