The Atlanta Falcons named fullback Patrick DiMarco the team’s nominee for the 2015 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year. DiMarco, a four-year veteran, is receiving this honor for the first time.
“When guys have the chance to give back and the impact they could have on the community that they’re in, I think it speaks volumes for our whole organization and what we want to stand for,” Head Coach Dan Quinn said. “And I couldn’t think of a more perfect role model for our community than Pat.”
DiMarco’s involvement, passion and energy is spread throughout many organizations and causes and is not just absorbed into one organization or one cause; his efforts are spread across impacting every aspect of the community.
