From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Most Outstanding Defensive Player Award is annually awarded to the best defensive player in the Canadian football League . The winner of the award is selected by members of the Football Reporters of Canada along with the head coaches in the CFL.[1] [2] The two nominees for the award are the James P. McCaffrey Trophy winner from the East Division , and the Norm Fieldgate Trophy winner from the West Division . Between the years of 1955 to 1973 , both defensive players and offensive lineman had to compete for the CFL's Most Outstanding Lineman Award . By the 1974 season , the league decided to make two separate awards for both defensive players and offensive lineman.
