Honors

[edit]

After the completion of the regular season, the All-NFL Europe League team was selected by the NFLEL coaching staffs, members of a media panel and fans voting online at NFLEurope.com.[15] Overall, Amsterdam had eight players selected. The selections were:

Additionally, Hamdan and defensive tackle Tony Brown were named offensive and co-defensive MVPs, respectively. Hamdan, who was in his third season with the Admirals, set an NFLEL record by posting a passer rating of 113.4, leading his team to a 6–1 record before suffering a season-ending injury. He completed 102 of 162 passes for a league-leading 1,629 yards with 12 touchdowns. In the Week 3 contest against Frankfurt he became only the second quarterback in league history to post a perfect 158.3 rating. Brown, who shared the award with Cologne Centurions' linebacker Philippe Gardent, became the third player in NFLEL history to win defensive MVP honors despite not being voted to the All-NFLEL team. He recorded four sacks and 40 tackles during the season.[15]
