Todd Gurley's MVP push makes him Player of the Month for December

AFC

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell racked up 310 rushing yards, 259 receiving yards, and six total touchdowns through his four December games (he didn't play in Week 17). He joins Jerome Bettis as the only Steelers to be named Offensive Player of the Month multiple times.

Buffalo Bills safety Jordan Poyer joins teammate Micah Hyde to become the only Bills teammates to capture Defensive Player of the Month honors in the same season. Hyde received the award in October.

Harrison Butker of the Kansas City Chiefs was named December's Special Teams Player of the Month after going 15-for-18 from field-goal range through five games. He successfully converted all 14 of his extra-point attempts. He's the first rookie kicker to win multiples of the award since they started being handed out in 1986.

NFC

Todd Gurley becomes the first Rams offensive player other than Marshall Faulk to be named Player of the Month more than once in a season. Gurley averaged 5.87 yards per carry on 75 December attempts, adding 309 receiving yards and scoring eight total touchdowns. Faulk accomplished the feat in both 2000 and 2001.

Arizona Cardinals linebacker Chandler Jones racked up 19 combined tackles in five games to become the NFC's Defensive Player of the Month. He recorded five sacks, bringing his 2017 total to 11.

Robbie Gould picks up NFC Special Teams Player of the Month honors for a third time in his career, tying him for the most among active kickers. The 35-year-old made all 18 field-goal attempts and all 12 extra-point tries. His 66 points through the five games are just 13 shy of the 79 points he accounted for in the 49ers' first 11 games of the season.

Rookies

Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt experienced a late-season resurgence, finishing his rookie year with at least one touchdown in each of his final four games. He went 35 yards for a score on his lone carry of Week 17 before being taken out.

New Orleans Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore is the first rookie defensive back to win Player of the Month multiple times since the award's inception in 1996. He recorded an interception in three of his final four games of the regular season.
