PHOENIX (AP) — Damar Hamlin has been named winner of the NFLPA’s Alan Page Community Award and made a brief appearance in Phoenix during Super Bowl week to receive the award. Hamlin read a brief statement with his parents on stage with him at the Phoenix Convention Center.

Hamlin’s toy drive fundraiser has raised more than $9 million since he collapsed.
