The coveted Defensive Rookie of the Year Award currently has a peculiar group of players with interesting "ties" (pun intended).Arizona ROLB Anthony Colombo (Grandson of deceased Mobster Anthony Colombo Jr), Detroit SS Ontarius Chapman (Nephew of Singer-Songwriter Tracy Chapman), Chicago MLB Curtis Benson (Son of Musician Marvin Bernard aka Tony YaYo (Benson is named in homage to his Father's childhood friend Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson), New Orleans MLB Willis Vaughn (Son of Former NBA Player Jacque Vaughn),Indianapolis CB Issaiah Griffin (Son of Comedian Eddie Griffin). Minus the obvious acknowledgements each player has made huge contributions to their respected teams so at this point the Winner of the DROY Award will definitely deserve it because of what they do on the field, not who they know off the field.
