It's a very well deserved honor for Dallas Cowboys cornerback Jourdan Lewis, who was named the recipient of the annual Ed Block Courage Award.
"My teammates appreciate how I came back," Lewis said. "They appreciate my hard work and the guy that I am. It's an amazing honor. I really appreciate being named the Ed Block Courage Award winner, but I love that my teammates keep me at a high regard."
Lewis being named the recipient of the award was special for head athletic trainer Jim Mauer:
"It's so special because there are usually several players who have overcome a lot of stuff, but to recognize one of them for exceptional effort and overcoming their obstacles is why I got into the business. It's why athletic trainers do what they do," said Maurer, who has been with the Cowboys for 34 seasons overall. "Jourdan has always been one of, if not the hardest worker since he got here. Watching him, year after year, beat out the competition is fun to watch.
