The debate will continue to rage on until Feb. 8th at the NFL Honors event next weekend when the AP Defensive Player of the Year Award is officially handed out. There were five finalists named with Dallas Cowboys CB DaRon Bland, Cowboys LB Micah Parsons, Pittsburgh Steelers OLB T.J. Watt, Las Vegas Raiders DE Maxx Crosby, and Cleveland Browns DE Myles Garrett all in the running. NFL’s The Insiders gave their final picks on who they think will take home the honor, and they were split between two main candidates—Watt and Garrett.
Judy Battista kicked off the segment with choosing Watt.
