Art McNally Award

Art McNally Award

The Art McNally Award is an annual award created in 2002 by former National Football League (NFL) Commissioner Paul Tagliabue and given to an NFL game official who exhibits exemplary professionalism, leadership, and commitment to sportsmanship on and off the field. This award is presented at the Pro Bowl in Hawaii.

The award is named after Art McNally, an NFL game official from 1959 to 1967 and Supervisior of Officials from 1968 to 1990. Since 1996, he has served as an assistant supervisor of officials in the NFL during the season. Tagliabue said of McNally, "Art McNally truly represented the qualities that are inscribed on the award. His dedication to the game and his professionalism and class on and off the field set the standard." [http://www.nfl.com/news/story/5335085]
