BillyKilmer Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ap-bartstarraward-fletcher ASHBURN, Va. (AP)—Washington Redskins linebacker London Fletcher is the recipient of the Bart Starr Award, which honors an NFL player for outstanding character and leadership in the home, on the field and in the community. Fletcher will get the award in Indianapolis on Feb. 4, the day before the Super Bowl is played in that city. The Bart Starr Award is voted on by the league’s players. Other finalists were Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha and Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten. Fletcher started the London’s Bridge Foundation in 2003 to help underprivileged children in his hometown of Cleveland and other cities, including Washington. He is also involved in other charitable projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JesseNeckred Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I saw this earlier on Facebook, well deserved Fletcher is really overall the best player we have on our team, he's in on nearly every tackle, regularly leads the league in tackles, and is ahead of Ray Lewis on total tackle count since they were both drafted he's nearly the most underrated player in the entire NFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExoDus84 Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Fletcher is the epitome of a professional. Hard working on the field, and a community leader off of it. I'm proud to have him as a member of the 'Skins. Congrats fletch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
