Considered the league's most prestigious honor, the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award presented by Nationwide recognizes NFL players who have exhibited excellence on-the-field, and whose passion to impact lives extends beyond the game. This year's nominee for the Kansas City Chiefs is three-time All Pro safety Tyrann Mathieu. His foundation supports financially disadvantaged youth in Kansas City and his hometown of New Orleans - inspired by a special person who made an enduring impact on his life.
