The Atlanta Falcons announced Wednesday that fullback Ovie Mughelli has been named the 2007 Atlanta Falcons Man of the Year for his outstanding performance on the field and commitment to community service. Mughelli joins a list of 31 other finalists from each NFL team, all of whom will be considered for the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award to be announced during Super Bowl XLII.
"I'm extremely flattered," Mughelli said. "I don't know other adjectives to use. Such great guys have won it in the past. To be considered at that level is huge to me."
