Welker: 12th player award
FOXBOROUGH -- Receiver Wes Welker was presented the 2007 Patriots 12th Player Award today.
The award is presented annually to the Patriots player who personifies the Patriots team spirit, performs beyond expectations and is recognized for his contributions to the organization, both on the field and in the community.
Recent winners include running back Laurence Maroney in 2006, linebacker Willie McGinest in 2005, wide receiver/defensive back Troy Brown in 2004, defensive tackle/fullback Dan Klecko in 2003, kicker Adam Vinatieri in 2002, quarterback Tom Brady in 2001 and linebacker Tedy Bruschi in 2000.
The 12th Player Award has become a core component of the partnership between Kimberly-Clark, Shaw's and the New England Patriots.
Well deserved. I can only hope that he gets picked for the pro bowl by the eventual coach.
Very nice and well deserved. Good for you, Wes.
Couldn't have gone to a better player. Congrats Wes!
So well deserved. He's outstanding on the field, always humble, and has played such a big part in our 14 wins. He deserved to make it to the Pro Bowl too.
Let's not forget Patriots management for landing Welker and a few other notables as well
Let's see how much damage he causes Miami this week - hope it's a ton, so they can say...geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez - maybe we shoulda kept him?
ha, ha, ha,
Great Honor for Wes & certainly well deserved - that MAN is a "3rd Down & needing a 1st bad" machine!
