Maurkice Pouncey: Charity Work ‘Something You Shouldn’t Get Pats On The Back For’

While T.J. Watt’s teammates would love to see him win the Defensive Player of the Year Award, to be voted on in a couple of weeks, the Pittsburgh Steelers are also really excited about the awards prospects of another one of their own. Maurkice Pouncey is the team’s nominee for the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award this year, and they really want to see him get it.

Especially, perhaps, Mike Tomlin, his head coach, who drafted him in the first round back in 2010. He is the longest-tenured Steeler from the Tomlin era now following Antonio Brown’s mustachioed mayhem from a year ago, outside of Ramon Foster, who was undrafted.
