Football Senior Matthew Hernandez Selected as Cardinals NFL Latino Honors Nominee

Senior defensive lineman Matthew Hernandez has been selected to represent the Arizona Cardinals organization and community as an NFL Latino Honors Award nominee.
 
The NFL Latino Youth Honors, presented by Procter & Gamble, recognizes outstanding high school tackle and flag football athletes nationwide for their academic and athletic excellence. The program stems from a longstanding partnership between the NFL and the Hispanic Heritage Foundation. The NFL and the HHF have highlighted impactful Latinos for many years, but this program focuses on honoring outstanding Latino youth football players.
 
This initiative celebrates high school seniors across NFL club markets who excel in the classroom and on the football field. Thanks to Procter & Gamble’s commitment to the program, eight high school seniors will each receive a grant award that can be used for college–including$25,000 grants for both the male and female national winners and $5,000 grants for each of the six other finalists. In addition to the grants, all eight finalists are set to participate in various special events in New Orleans during Super Bowl LIX Week.
 
Hernandez will be represented at the Cardinals versus Detroit Lions game this weekend.
