Matt Ryan beat out Tom Brady to win the 2016 NFL Most Valuable Player award.

Ryan received 25 votes for MVP while Brady finished second with 10.

Ryan finished with 4,944 yards, 38 touchdowns and only seven interceptions.

LaDainian Tomlinson, Kurt Warner, Terrell Davis, Kenny Easley, Jason Taylor, Morten Andersen and Jerry Jones have been voted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Tomlinson and Taylor were the only players in this class who are first-ballot selections.

Tomlinson set the template for running backs in this pass-happy era, equally adept at short-yardage runs and catching the ball out of the backfield. The NFL MVP in 2006 when he scored 31 touchdowns and gained 2,323 yards from scrimmage, Tomlinson was previously selected by the Hall of Fame as a starter on its All-Decade team of the 2000s.

Warner didn't become a full-time starting quarterback until he was 28 years old with the 1999 St. Louis Rams. He wound up winning the MVP and Super Bowl that season, the last player to pull off that double. Warner would win another league MVP and reach two more Super Bowls in a career that continued defying expectations.

Davis' career with the Broncos was brief, yet brilliant. A sixth-round pick in the 1995 NFL Draft, Davis played his best in the biggest games. He recorded seven straight 100-yard performances spanning the 1997 and 1998 postseason, with the Broncos winning back-to-back Super Bowl titles.

Dak Prescott beat out teammate Ezekiel Elliott to win the 2016 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year.

In balloting announced Saturday night, Prescott received 28½ votes from a nationwide panel of 50 media members who regularly cover the league. The other 21½ went to Elliott, who rushed for a league-high 1,631 yards and scored 15 times. Prescott ranked third in passing behind the two Super Bowl quarterbacks, throwing for 23 TDs with four interceptions.

Prescott is the first Cowboy since Emmitt Smith in 1990 to earn the honor. Tony Dorsett, Duane Thomas and Calvin Hill also won it for Dallas.

Joey Bosa has won the 2016 Associated Press NFL Defensive Rookie Player of the Year award in a landslide.

Bosa had 12.5 sacks despite missing the first four games due to a holdout.

Bosa earned 37 votes from a nationwide panel of 50 media members who regularly cover the league. He easily outdistanced Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey, who received 10. The other three votes went to Falcons linebacker Deion Jones in balloting announced Saturday night.

Khalil Mack has been named the 2016 Associated Press NFL Defensive Player of the Year, beating out Von Miller by one vote.

Mack drew 18 votes from a nationwide panel of 50 media members who regularly cover the NFL. Miller was next at 17 in balloting announced Saturday night.

Mack had 11 sacks, took part in 73 tackles, forced five fumbles and recovered three, and even had an interception for a touchdown. 

Matt Ryan has been named the 2016 Associated Press NFL Offensive Player of the Year.

Ryan led the NFL in passing as the Atlanta Falcons scored a league-high 540 points.

Ryan drew 15½ votes from a nationwide panel of 50 media members who regularly cover the league. Green Bay QB Aaron Rodgers was second with 11 and Arizona's versatile running back, David Johnson, received eight in results announced Saturday night.
