Alex Smith looks a shoo-in for Comeback Player of the Year, having returned from a life-threatening leg injury to lead Washington to the NFC East title. Smith's teammate Chase Young is the front-runner for Defensive Rookie of the Year, while the Rams' Aaron Donald will surely get his vice-like grip on the Defensive Player of the Year award.
The Offensive Player of the Year category looks intriguing, with the Titans' force of nature Derrick Henry right in the mix with Rodgers, Mahomes and Tom Brady. Speaking of QBs, the the 2021 NFL Hall of Fame class will also be announced, with Peyton Manning leading the 15 finalists and almost guaranteed his ticket to Cantonville at the first asking.
And of course there's Coach of the Year, which is being contested by Kevin Stefanski, who led the Browns to their first post-season since 2002, Brian Flores, who's done an outstanding rebuilding job in Miami, and Sean McDermott, for turning the Bills into one of the most entertaining organizations around, and securing their first AFC East title since 1995.
With Green Day joining host Steve Harvey and a bunch of special guests, it's the perfect warm-up for Sunday's Super Bowl, so follow our guide as we explain how to watch the NFL Honors online and stream the awards show from anywhere.
