Buffalo Bills Dion Dawkins has always been a man of the people. He is a champion of the Bills mob and an important part of the Buffalo community. For the second year in a row, Dawkins was nominated for the NFL’s most prestigious award, the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award. This award recognizes players who want to celebrate the league’s fundraising and community service. On Tuesday, he appeared on NFL Network’s “Good Morning Football” to talk about his candidacy.”This candidate is extraordinary,” Dawkins said.
“It cannot be bought or counterfeited. You can’t just give it away. It’s the stuff of a lot of work, a lot of personality, a lot of thumbs up and a few thumbs up.”You have to be one with yourself and be authentic. This is the biggest achievement I could get, to be in a group of men who do great things for, usually for people I don’t know. -If Dawkins finally win the prize, his first, he would receive a donation of $ 250,000 for a charity of his choice. This would probably go to its Foundation – Dionss Dions – which helps to find out the local communities. His organization recently held a talent show for the children he volunteers for. There, with the help of his family, Dawkins captured his candidacy. Dawkins went on to talk about prioritizing love in his approach to service and action.Dawkins said: “It is not difficult for people to do things, but it seems difficult for people to be good people in this world.” “It’s ridiculous to talk about us being good people and getting awards or something. I chose to love, not hate.”Seven years in the league is an achievement in itself. It’s even more impressive that someone has been nominated twice for an award that reflects their character.
In typical Dawkins fashion, he wants to share the credit for that success. “It’s special,” Dawkins said. “Having received it twice is a testament to my relationship with God, my family, the people in my community and the people in this building who help me and guide me to where I need to be.
