  • Khalil Mack Wins 2016 NFL Defensive Player of the Year Award

    NFL honors best players at awards ceremony

    Oakland Raiders All-Pro edge rusher Khalil Mack won the AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year award, edging last season's Super Bowl MVP, Von Miller, by one vote (18-17).

    Mack was, by far, the standout player on a Raiders defense that ranked only 26th overall. He had 11 sacks, took part in 73 tackles, forced five fumbles and recovered three, and even had an interception for a touchdown.

    He's the second Oakland defender to win the award; cornerback Lester Hayes got it in 1980. Miller also had a big year with 13½ sacks, 78 tackles and three forced fumbles for the fourth-rated Broncos.
