Allen Robinson explains why winning Ed Block Courage award is so important

For the second time in his seven-year career, Allen Robinson is an Ed Block Courage Award winner.

Having previously won the award in 2015, the Bears announced on Wednesday that Robinson was again elected by his teammates as the Bears player who best "displays professionalism, strength, dedication and is a community role model." The Bears' star receiver has been a mainstay in the community since coming to Chicago in 2018, mostly through his Within Reach foundation.

When talking with reporters on Wednesday, Robinson spoke at length about what it means to him to win the award a second time.
