FedEx Air & Ground Awards Continues Support of HBCUs into the NFL Postseason

FedEx Air & Ground Awards Continues Support of HBCUs into the NFL Postseason

Now in its third decade, the FedEx Air & Ground NFL Players of the Year Awards will once again honor the best quarterback and running back performances of the season.  Fans can help celebrate these standout athletes by voting for the FedEx Air & Ground NFL Players of the Year.

During the 2023-24 NFL regular season, FedEx once again proudly worked with the Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF) to identify Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) across the country to receive donations to support needs-based scholarships through the 2024-25 school year. Each week of the regular season, a $2,000 donation was made in the name of the winning quarterback and running back (for a total of $4,000).

With the crowning of the new FedEx Air & Ground NFL Players of the Year, FedEx will donate $20,000 to the HBCU choices of the winning quarterback and running back. Just like the regular season donations, the $40,000 donation will help support needs-based scholarships. For the year, more than $100,000 will be granted among select HBCUs to support student scholarships.

In total, the FedEx Air & Ground NFL Players of the Year Awards program has donated over 1 million dollars to various non-profits, charities, hospitals, and other humanitarian organizations.

FedEx will announce the 2023 FedEx Air & Ground NFL Players of the Year at the 13th annual NFL Honors presented by Invisalign. The primetime awards special will air nationally on Thursday, February 8 at 9 p.m. ET (6 p.m. PST) on CBS and NFL Network from The Resorts World Theatre in Las Vegas, NV. Fans can also stream NFL Honors on NFL+ and Paramount+.
