The year’s gala will mark the 52nd anniversary of the event, which will benefit the University of Kansas Health System’s Sports Medicine and Performance Center.
This year’s award recipients include:
- AFC Offensive Player of the Year: Jonathan Taylor, RB, Indianapolis Colts
- NFC Offensive Player of the Year: Cooper Kupp, WR, Los Angeles Rams

- NFC Coach of the Year: Matt LaFleur, Green Bay Packers
The presentation of the Lamar Hunt Award — created in 2008 to honor the Chiefs founder — will conclude the festivities. It is intended to recognize a person or group that significantly contributed to the NFL and its standing.
