The New York Giants have had a disappointing season but it will end on a high note — at least for three players.
Nose tackle Dexter Lawrence, who is currently on injured reserve (IR) after dislocating his elbow in Week 13, has been named to his third consecutive Pro Bowl.
Before landing on IR, Lawrence was undeniably the Giants’ most dominant player and among the most dominant defenders in football.
In 12 games, Lawrence recorded 44 tackles (23 solo, eight for a loss), one forced fumble, one pass defensed, 16 QB hits and 9.0 sacks. His 89.9 overall grade from Pro Football Focus also leads the Giants and is second among defensive tackles league-wide.
It’s unclear if Lawrence will be able to participate in the 2025 NFL Pro Bowl Games.
In addition to Lawrence, linebacker Brian Burns was named a first alternate behind Jonathan Greenward (Vikings), Andrew Van Ginkel (Vikings), and Jared Verse (Rams).
Finally, rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers was named a second alternate. The Pro Bowl starters are slated to be Justin Jefferson (Vikings), CeeDee Lamb (Cowboys), Terry McLaurin (Commanders), and Amon-Ra St. Brown (Lions).
None of the three Giants finished in the top 10 of fan voting.
