Bills TE Dawson Knox receives Call to Courage Award
BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox was presented with this year's Call to Courage Award on Saturday morning at Hyatt Regency Buffalo.
The award was presented by former Bills quarterback and Stanford's interim football coach Frank Reich, who presents it every year to a current NFL player who shows leadership on their team and in their community.

Knox has been an avid supporter of P.U.N.T. Pediatric Cancer Collaborative since he was a rookie on the Bills, having sold 'Knox Sox,' pledging donations for every touchdown and reception he made in 2023, and more.
He called the award the highest honor of his career thus far.
Other guests who received recognition include University at Buffalo's Shaun Dolac, who became the first consensus All-American in UB football history, and Justus Kleitz, an Iroquois High School Red Hawk and winner of the High School Call to Courage Award.
Knox is the third Buffalo Bill to receive the award, following in the footsteps of former defensive tackle Kyle Williams and former linebacker Lorenzo Alexander.
