Anderson humbled by award

MONTGOMERY, Ala. -- Blake Anderson leaned forward in his chair with both hands clasped together, his eyes fixated toward the ground in front of him, his words slowly and carefully being spoken.

Inside a small conference room on the second floor of the Renaissance Montgomery Hotel and Spa on Thursday evening, Anderson humbly reflected on the honor he had received a day prior.

Members of the Football Writers Association of America named Anderson the recipient of this year's Capital One Orange Bowl Courage Award on Wednesday.
