Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith was named “Comeback Player of the Year” on Friday after resuming his career this season. Smith, 36, had not played for two years following a serious leg injury that required 17 operations.
After starting the Championship as a No. 3 quarterback, Smith started out during the season. He played eight games and passed for 1,582 yards and six touchdowns. His performances helped Washington to qualify for the play-offs (elimination in the first round of the NFC Conference against Tampa Bay, 23-31).
Josh Allen, the Buffalo Bills quarterback, was voted “Most Improved Player of the Year”, a trophy that rewards the player who has improved the most. This season, he managed 69.2% of his passes for 4,544 yards and 37 touchdowns (in 2019, Allen had managed 58.8% of his passes for 3,089 yards and 20 TD’s). Buffalo will play Kansas City in the US Conference Final on Sunday night through Monday.
