The NFL released its first update on Pro Bowl voting after one week of polls being open and the Los Angeles Rams were not well-represented. Not a single Rams player leads his position group in fan votes, which isn’t exactly surprising considering the up-and-down season Los Angeles has had thus far.
What’s more shocking is that only one player ranks in the top 10 at his position: rookie Braden Fiske. He has the fifth-most fan votes among all defensive tackles in the NFL, behind only Dexter Lawrence, Vita Vea, Quinnen Williams and Cameron Heyward. All four of them have already been Pro Bowlers, so Fiske is in great company.
Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp were outside the top 10 at wide receiver, likely due to their injury absences, and Kyren Williams didn’t crack the top 10 at running back despite being fifth in rushing yards and eighth in rushing touchdowns.
Jared Verse has work to do at edge rusher, as do Kevin Dotson at guard and Matthew Stafford at quarterback. Those are the Rams’ strongest candidates to get voted into the Pro Bowl if they continue to play well down the stretch.

Fan voting remains open until Dec. 23, so there’s still time for Rams players to inch up the board. Players and coaches will also vote for their Pro Bowl picks, making up the other two-thirds of the voting process.
