Following the news last March that the majority of the National Football Awards Association's members would be opting out of CFB 25 (http://tgt.pw/t-fnm), the success of the title appears to have reversed that stance for College Football 26.

Per the CFB 26 Dynasty Deep Dive, beta leaks, and MUTLeaks (https://x.com/MUTLeaksXXVI/status/1937892817134571640), 14 authentic awards are being added to the game. From the Dynasty blog (https://www.ea.com/games/ea-sports-college-football/college-football-26/news/cfb26-campus-huddle-dynasty-deep-dive): "Speaking of awards, in College Football 26 we’ve added 14 authentic awards, including the Maxwell Award and the Walter Camp Award."

This leaves two in-game awards as generics: Edge Rusher of the Year (Ted Hendricks Award (https://tedhendricks.com/award.htm)) and Returner of the Year (The Jet Award (https://thejetaward.com)). Neither of these awards are members of the NFAA.
