Entering its third decade, the FedEx Air & Ground ¹ú²úÍâÁ÷ÍøPlayers of the Week Awards will once again honor the top ¹ú²úÍâÁ÷Íøquarterbacks and running backs during the season.

Each week of the 18-week regular season, three (3) quarterbacks and three (3) running backs will be nominated for the FedEx Air & Ground ¹ú²úÍâÁ÷ÍøPlayers of the Week Awards, based on their performance. As always, weekly winners will be selected by fans, who have the chance to vote for the top quarterback and running back each week.

For the 2023-24 season, the longest-running ¹ú²úÍâÁ÷Íøsponsor-driven awards will once again proudly work with the Thurgood Marshall College Fund to make donations of $2,000 in the name of the winning quarterback and running back ($4,000 total) to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) across the country.

Over the course of the entire season, select HBCUs will receive grants totaling more than $100,000 to support needs-based scholarships through the 2024-2025 school year. Over the past two seasons, FedEx has donated more than $200,000 to directly support needs-based scholarships to HBCU students.

In total, the FedEx Air & Ground ¹ú²úÍâÁ÷ÍøPlayers of the Year Awards program has donated over 1 million dollars to various non-profits, charities, hospitals, and other humanitarian organizations.
