Does Charles Tillman have a chance at Comeback Player of the Year?

Over the past two seasons, Charles "Peanut" Tillman has played in only 10 games.  He tore his triceps muscle both times. If he plays the whole year and is anywhere close to regaining his previous form, does he have a chance?  There are some solid candidates this year for the award: Eric Berry, Sam Bradford, and Navorro Bowman to name a few.

I think he has a shot.

I think people also need to be prepared that until he shows something he might be more name/coach than player.  The only actual action we have seen from him he appeared to be what the opponent targeted on our D.

I feel like Peterson is going to just go crazy again this year and break the record and get MVP and Comeback Player.

If they have any decent alternative candidate, I can't see AP winning it due to the whole PR thing around his child abuse case.  The NFL really doesn't want to rehash that while they hand him a coveted award.

The NFL wouldn't have a choice, they don't choose the winners. If Peterson breaks the record you couldn't justify not giving him MVP and Comeback Player. Unless another player demolishes some other record(s), but I don't see that happening.

NFL could easily saying coming back from being suspended for a year doesn't qualify you.  It has always been very vague about what "comeback" means.

    • And those targets are mostly going to TMac, who will be a part of the FUTURE of the team. Did it remove the most reliable WR and Bryce's safety blanket? Absolutely. But it's also allowing him to build better chemistry with TMac, Stephens, Horn, Evans, etc. I am pumped to see Coker back and hopefully they can reignite that connection. 
    • It's the same thing that made Bryce the #1 overall pick. I've never seen such mass delusion about a football player before. Everyone convinced themselves that the fact that Bryce was below to severely below average in practically every physical attribute for an NFL QB just wouldn't matter because he has everything else you need and that'll more than make up for it. When has such an argument ever been made for an NFL prospect before? We watch prospects plummet every year because they run a couple tenths slower in the 40 time than expected. Smitty had everything you want in a receiver except he was 5'9" so he goes in the 3rd round. That's the way these things generally go. If you check a lot of boxes but leave some key ones unchecked you're not an elite prospect. With Bryce though, the physically limitations were always obvious so it gave more time to be able to build that into the equation and come up with reasons for why he'd be able to overcome it. Now we have all these same shortcomings having shone brightly on the NFL field and we STILL have people trying to convince themselves he'll be able to overcome it while ignoring that our past two wins and his improved play have come while riding the back of RB putting up GOAT RB production over the past two weeks. What changed wasn't Bryce. What changed is that Rico is playing out of his damn mind. Pretty much every NFL roster caliber QB can shine if he can get 200+ yards out of the RB behind him.
