The Associated Press has announced its lists of finalists for eight 2024 NFL awards, including those for NFL MVP, Rookies of the Year and more.

Voters were asked to rank their top five votes for MVP and top three votes for all other awards, and the voting for each award has been trimmed down to its finalists. Five players or coaches are listed as finalists for each of the eight awards.

The 14th annual NFL Honors show, hosted by Snoop Dogg, will take place on Thursday, Feb. 6 at 9 p.m. ET and broadcast on Fox and NFL Network. The winners of each award will be announced at the show, which gets underway three days before Super Bowl 59.
