TAMPA, Fla — The show must go on! That's been the theme of this year's Super Bowl.
Despite a global pandemic and plenty of setbacks throughout the regular season, the NFL has reached the championship game. And, in order for things to go smoothly, the league has made a few changes to the usual end of year honors.
This year's NFL Honors award show will be virtual and pre-produced. Instead of the typical red carpet and live audience extravaganza, the league has opted for a safer and more socially distanced experience.
Steve Harvey will host the 10th edition of the awards show, which will be nationally televised on 10 Tampa Bay Saturday, Feb. 6 at 9 p.m. The event will feature the announcements of the Associated Press awards and the latest Pro Football Hall of Fame class.
