Byrd Rookie Of The Year? The AP has decided to cast a re-vote for NFL defensive rookie of the year because of the four game suspension incurred by the winner Brian Cushing. He violated the league's steriod policy. Jairus Byrd finished a very distant second place so instead of giving him the award there will be a re-vote and Cushing will be involved in the re-vote so he can still win the award.
