On Feb. 3, the New England Patriots saw themselves become Super Bowl champions with their win over the Los Angeles Rams in Atlanta. One week to the day of their achievement, two of them went from earning honors to presenting them.

Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman and safety Devin McCourty were on hand to present the opening award at Sunday night's Grammy Awards, announcing the winner of the award for best pop duo/group performance.

Fittingly, just a week after beating a foe from Los Angeles, Edelman and McCourty were standing in the Staples Center, home to the Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers.

Six soldiers were honored, each receiving Meritorious Service Medals, Thursday for heroic actions responding to the shooting at Fort Stewart. “One of the things I can say unequivocally is that the fast action of these soldiers — under stress and under trauma and under fire — absolutely saved lives from being lost,” U.S. Army Secretary Dan Driscoll told reporters as the six soldiers stood near him Thursday. “They are everything that is good about this nation.” (Hyosub Shin/AJC)
