Ravens currently have 5 players who are leading vote-getters for 2025 Pro Bowl games

The Ravens have five players who are the leading vote-getters at their position in the AFC: QB: Lamar Jackson, RB: Derrick Henry
ILB: Roquan Smith, CB: Marlon Humphrey, SS: Kyle Hamilton

The Ravens (8-5) are one of the most exciting teams in the NFL. That popularity can be seen in the Pro Bowl voting. After one week of voting, star quarterback Lamar Jackson leads all players in balloting for the 2025 Pro Bowl Games. He has received 44,681 votes. Ravens running back Derrick Henry is 2nd among all players with 40,729 votes.

Philadelphia running back Saquon Barkley (40,602), Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen (36,574), and Detroit running back Jahmyr Gibbs (35,637) round out the top five.

The Detroit Lions lead all clubs in total votes received, followed by the Baltimore Ravens, Kansas City Chiefs, Minnesota Vikings, and Pittsburgh Steelers.

Fans can vote as often as they would like to help determine the 88-man roster and send the league’s best players at each position to Orlando for the Pro Bowl Games until Monday, Dec. 23, across a variety of platforms, including:

  • ProBowl.com/Vote

  • On club sites (i.e., https://www.baltimoreravens.com/pro-bowl-games/vote)
  • Social voting — During the final two weeks of voting (Dec. 9 – Dec. 23), fans can vote directly on “X” (formerly Twitter) by tweeting the first and last name of the player, tagging the player’s official Twitter handle or creating a hashtag including the player’s first and last name. All three of these methods must include the hashtag: #ProBowlVote. Social votes will count as double during the final two days (Dec. 22 – Dec. 23).

Player selections will be determined by the consensus votes of fans, players, and coaches, with each group’s vote counting as one-third toward determining the all-star players who will be selected for this year’s Pro Bowl Games. The NFL is the only sports league that combines voting by fans, coaches, and players to determine its Pro Bowl teams. NFL players and coaches will cast their votes on Friday, Dec. 27.

If the season ended today, Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels would be the starter over Jalen Hurts (Eagles) and Jared Goff (Lions), among others in the NFC.

WATCH: Jalen Hurts drops a wide open pass on ‘Philly Special’ during Pro Bowl Games

Twitter reacted to Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts dropping a wide open pass on a trick play, Philly Special attempt during the Pro Bowl games

In his defense, Hurts has a tape and a small brace on his injured middle finger, but he’s still going to hear the boos from this dropped pass during the Pro Bowl games.

Hurts got the start at quarterback during the Flag Football contest, and during the NFC team’s second possession, the Eagles All-Pro signal-caller dropped a ‘Philly Special’ attempt that ended badly.

Hurts nearly connected on the Philly Special 6 years ago to the day Nick Foles completed it to help the Eagles win their 1st Super Bowl over the Patriots.

The roster for the NFL Pro Bowl has been finalized with seven Baltimore Ravens players making the final cut. One notable missing name was quarterback Lamar Jackson.

Jackson seemingly opted out of playing in the Pro Bowl after initially being voted in. Indianapolis Colts quarterback Gardner Minshew will take Jackson’s place in the Pro Bowl.

Jackson’s incredible season netted him first-team All-Pro honors for the second time in his career and a likely second MVP award. Given the competitor Jackson is, though, his final game of the season against the Kansas City Chiefs is sure to leave a sour taste in his mouth for the rest of the offseason as he prepares for another shot at the elusive Lombardi Trophy. Jackson had a pair of turnovers in the AFC Championship loss to the Chiefs, including a backbreaking interception in the endzone when he tried to fit a pass into triple coverage to tight end Isaiah Likely.

Individual awards seem to mean very little to the accomplished quarterback now so it does not come as a surprise that he will not be playing in this year’s Pro Bowl.
