The award is given out by the Professional Football Writers Association to a player who has courage under pressure as well as on the field. Quinn is the second Bear to receive this honor; Michael Haynes received it in 2000. Quinn entered the NFL as a first-round pick (sixth overall) of the Bears in 2009. He joined a strong group of linebackers in Chicago including Brian Urlacher, Lance Briggs and Todd Jones. Quinn made an immediate impact for the Bears and led the team in sacks in 2010 with 9.5.
