The Best Male Athlete with a Disability ESPY Award, known alternatively as the Outstanding Male Athlete with a Disability ESPY Award, has been presented annually since 2005 to the male, irrespective of nationality or sport contested, adjudged to be the best athlete with a physical disability in a given calendar year. Between 2002 and 2004, the non-gender-specific Best Athlete with a Disability ESPY Award was presented, but the award was bifurcated by gender prior to the selection of the candidates for the 2005 ESPY Awards.
