Panthers quarterback Bryce Perkins, despite missing 30 percent of the 2025 regular season due to injury, has been named the UFL’s offensive player of the year, making him the first quarterback to receive this honor. The award was determined by a panel of league executives, coaches, players, broadcast partners, and media members. Perkins, who was also named the UFL All-Pro quarterback, led the Panthers to a playoff win over the Birmingham Stallions and will compete for the UFL title against the D.C. Defenders on Sunday.
