3 Broncos players make 2025 Pro Bowl roster

Congrats to Broncos CB Pat Surtain, OLB Nik Bonitto and WR/R Marvin Mims for making the 2025 Pro Bowl!

Three Denver Broncos players have made the NFL’s 2025 Pro Bowl roster, the NFL announced Saturday.

Broncos cornerback Pat Surtain, pass rusher Nik Bonitto and returner Marvin Mims will start for the AFC team coached by Peyton Manning (the NFC squad is coached by Eli Manning). The “Pro Bowl Games” feature several skills competitions leading up a flag football game.

Denver also had a group of eight players named alternates for the Pro Bowl, including rookie quarterback Bo Nix.

Pat Surtain has allowed just 298 passing yards and a 55.6 passer rating to opposing quarterbacks this season, according to Pro Football Reference. His four interceptions are tied for fourth among AFC cornerbacks. Surtain also broke up 11 passes, forced and recovered a fumble and grabbed a 100-yard pick-six this season.

Nik Bonitto has totaled 11.5 sacks this fall, tied for the fourth-most in the NFL. He also has 22 QB hits, 14 tackles behind the line, four pass breakups, two forced fumbles, a 71-yard pick-six and a 50-yard fumble-six in 2024.

Marvin Mims is currently averaging 15.7 yards per punt, which ranks first in the NFL among players with double-digit returns. His 62-yard long ranks fifth, and he’s also made an impact on offense with four scores, including 93-yard and 51-yard touchdown catches.

The 2025 Pro Bowl Games will be held at Camping World Stadium in Orlando on Feb. 2. The NFC defeated the AFC 64-59 last season.

Jayden Daniels led all NFL QBs in Pro Bowl voting: Where did other Commanders finish?

Jayden Daniels led all NFL QBs in Pro Bowl fan voting, but several Commanders ranked high.

Jayden Daniels has taken the NFL by storm in 2024. The Washington Commanders rookie quarterback has been the runaway favorite for the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year award all season. Over the last two weeks, Daniels led come-from-behind wins with last-second touchdown passes to defeat the Eagles and Falcons.

With Sunday’s win, Washington clinched a playoff berth, completing a miraculous one-year turnaround. The Commanders were 4-13 last season and are 11-5 in 2024 with one game remaining.

Daniels has led the way, becoming one of the NFL’s best quarterbacks — as a rookie. He’s broken numerous team and NFL records and has reinvigorated Washington’s fan base. His jersey is one of the NFL’s top sellers and is everywhere at Northwest Stadium on game day.

So, it’s no surprise that Daniels was popular in Pro Bowl voting. Voting ended for the Pro Bowl this week, and Daniels finished No. 3 in the NFL behind Kansas City tight end Travis Kelce and Detroit running back Jahmyr Gibbs. We know why Kelce finished atop the Pro Bowl voting, and Daniels still finished with only 10,000 fewer votes.

Daniels wasn’t the only Commanders who finished high in Pro Bowl voting. In fact, 10 other Commanders finished inside the top five of their respective positions in Pro Bowl voting.

Here’s the full list:

  • QB Jayden Daniels: 1st
  • C Tyler Biadasz: 2nd
  • G Sam Cosmi: 3rd
  • WR Terry McLaurin: 4th
  • ILB Bobby Wagner: 1st
  • OLBs: Frankie Luvu (4th) and Dante Fowler Jr. (5th)
  • SS Jeremy Chinn: 4th
  • LS Tyler Ott: 2nd
  • P Tress Way: 2nd
  • ST Jeremy Reaves: 2nd

Sure, this is fan voting, but with Washington’s success this season, multiple players will go to the Pro Bowl. Luvu is quietly having one of the better seasons of any linebacker in the NFL, while Fowler has 10.5 sacks. Wagner again leads the NFL in tackles, while McLaurin is among the NFL leaders in touchdown receptions.

Lions players dominate fan voting for the Pro Bowl

Lions players dominate fan voting for the Pro Bowl, with 7 Detroit players finishing first and several more in the top 5 at their positions

The Pro Bowl might not be an actual game anymore, but it’s still a status players covet. One-third of the Pro Bowl selection process is the fan voting, and the fans have spoken loudly that the Detroit Lions deserve major representation in the honorary exhibition.

The NFL published the final results of the fan voting, and the list reflects a lot of love for the Lions.

Several Lions finished atop the fan voting at their positions:

C Frank Ragnow
S Kerby Joseph
G Kevin Zeitler
WE Amon-Ra St. Brown
RB Jahmyr Gibbs
OT Penei Sewell
P Jack Fox

Offensive guard Graham Glasgow, LB Jack Campbell, OT Taylor Decker and safety Brian Branch were second at their spots. Alim McNeill (now injured) finished third at DT, as did QB Jared Goff, kicker Jake Bates and special teams player Sione Vaki. Carlton Davis was fourth amongst CBs, the same as long snapper Hogan Hatten and TE Sam LaPorta. Running back David Montgomery came in fifth, too.

The fan vote gets combined with the player votes and coach voting to determine the final Pro Bowlers. The Pro Bowl teams will be announced on Thursday.

At least 5 Broncos are poised to make 2025 Pro Bowl thanks to fan votes

Pat Surtain, Nik Bonitto, Zach Allen, Quinn Meinerz and Marvin Mims are likely Pro Bowl-bound after finishing well in Pro Bowl fan voting.

Fan voting for the 2025 NFL Pro Bowl Games has concluded and the NFL has released a list of the players that finished in the top ten at their respective positions.

The Denver Broncos had 14 players finish in the top ten at their positions during the vote vote, including two players who finished first overall.

  • Pat Surtain: 1st in votes at cornerback (1st in AFC)
  • Nik Bonitto: 1st in votes at outside linebacker (1st in AFC)
  • Zach Allen: 2nd-most votes at defensive tackle (2nd in AFC)
  • Quinn Meinerz: 4th-most votes at guard (1st in AFC)
  • Marvin Mims: 4th-most votes at returner (1st in AFC)
  • Riley Dixon: 4th-most votes at punter (2nd in AFC)
  • Wil Lutz: 4th-most votes at kicker (3rd in AFC)
  • Courtland Sutton: 6th-most votes at wide receiver (3rd in AFC)
  • Michael Burton: 6th-most votes at fullback (4th in AFC)
  • Tremon Smith: 7th-most votes on special teams (2nd in AFC)
  • Bo Nix: 7th-most votes at quarterback (4th in AFC)
  • Brandon Jones: 8th-most votes at strong safety (3rd in AFC)
  • Garett Bolles: 8th-most votes at offensive tackle (4th in AFC)
  • Mitchel Frabroni: 9th-most votes at long snapper (4th in AFC)

Based on the fan voting alone, Surtain, Bonitto, Allen, Meinerz and Mims appear to be near-locks to make the All-Star game, and Denver should have multiple alternates this season.

Fans account for one-third of the Pro Bowl voting process, with players and coaches making up the other two-thirds.

The Pro Bowl rosters will be announced on Jan. 2. The 2025 Pro Bowl Games will be held at Camping World Stadium in Orlando on Feb. 2.

These 5 Rams players are getting snubbed in Pro Bowl fan voting

None of these five Rams players are in the top 10 at their positions in Pro Bowl fan voting, but they definitely should be

The Los Angeles Rams have generated some buzz in the NFC thanks to their three-game winning streak and 7-2 record since Week 7, but that hasn’t translated to their players earning recognition as potential Pro Bowlers.

After three weeks of Pro Bowl fan voting being open, only one Rams player ranks in the top 10 at his position in total votes received: Braden Fiske, who’s No. 4 among all defensive tackles. Not a single other Rams player is in the top 10 at his position, which is shocking to see.

They have plenty of deserving candidates for the Pro Bowl, too. Matthew Stafford is playing well, Byron Young is applying consistent pressure on the quarterback and Alaric Jackson has been an underrated stud at left tackle.

These five players have especially strong cases for the Pro Bowl, yet they’re not in the top 10 at their positions.

RB Kyren Williams

Williams may not be putting up eye-popping numbers or leading the NFL in rushing yards per game like he was last season, but he’s still been one of the more productive players in football from a yardage and touchdown perspective.

He currently ranks fourth in rushing yards with 1,121, fourth in rushing touchdowns with 12 and his 14 total touchdowns are tied for third in the NFL. Najee Harris, who’s ninth in Pro Bowl voting among running backs, ranks 14th with 891 rushing yards and only has five total touchdowns.

WR Puka Nacua

Nacua may have missed five games with a knee injury but he’s been incredibly productive in the games he has played. He has 805 yards and three touchdowns this season, ranking third in receiving yards per game (89.4). That includes two games where he suffered a knee injury and was ejected.

Somehow, Jayden Reed of the Packers is 10th among wide receivers despite only having 727 yards in 14 games.

DT Kobie Turner

Turner is perhaps the biggest snub of them all. He has seven sacks this season, which is fifth among all defensive tackles. He also has nine tackles for a loss, 11 quarterback hits and 60 total tackles, stuffing the stat sheet as one of the Rams’ best defensive players.

According to Pro Football Focus, Turner has 49 total pressures, which is the sixth-most among interior defenders. No player in the NFL has more pressures against double teams since 2023 than Turner, which shows how dominant he is even when getting extra attention.

He absolutely deserves to be a Pro Bowler, but fans aren’t giving him his due.

OLB Jared Verse

Verse has been outstanding as a rookie, even if he has slowed down a little bit in the last few games. There are only three edge rushers in the NFL with more pressures than him (64), according to PFF, and he’s been credited with six sacks by the analytics site.

There aren’t many edge rushers with his combination of power and speed, and he’s only a rookie. With the overall talent at edge rusher in the NFL right now, he probably won’t get in as a rookie, but he’s a future star.

RG Kevin Dotson

There are only five guards in the league with a higher overall PFF grade than Dotson this season, who’s earned an 81.1 mark thus far in 2024. He’s allowed 22 pressures, which isn’t an impressively low number, but his 84.1 run-blocking grade shows where his greatest impact is.

The Pro Bowl is often a popularity contest, and that’s even more evident on the offensive line. Four teams have two guards in the top 10 of vote-getters so far this year (Lions, Chiefs, Eagles and Steelers), with the Packers and Browns having one guard each in the top 10.

Pro Bowl fan voting update is good news for 2 Broncos players

Pat Surtain and Nik Bonitto are on pace to make the Pro Bowl, but other Broncos players need your vote.

Fan voting for the 2025 NFL Pro Bowl Games opened three weeks ago and we have received our third round of voting updates. The Denver Broncos have 11 players in the top ten at their respective positions after the third wave of voting.

  • Pat Surtain: 2nd-most votes at cornerback (2nd in AFC)
  • Nik Bonitto: 2nd-most votes at outside linebacker (2nd in AFC)
  • Riley Dixon: 5th-most votes at punter (3rd in AFC)
  • Wil Lutz: 6th-most votes at kicker (4th in AFC)
  • Michael Burton: 6th-most votes at fullback (4th in AFC)
  • Zach Allen: 8th-most votes at defensive tackle (4th-most in the AFC)
  • Marvin Mims: 10th-most votes at returner (4th in AFC)
  • Brandon Jones: 10th-most votes at strong safety (5th in AFC)
  • Bo Nix: 10th-most votes at quarterback (5th in AFC)
  • Mitchel Frabroni: 10th-most votes at long snapper (5th in AFC)
  • Tremon Smith: 10th-most votes on special teams (5th in AFC)

Snubs in the top ten include guard Quinn Meinerz and defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers. Both players could make up ground when players and coaches add their votes later this month.

Surtain and Bonitto appear to be locks to make it, but the rest of Denver’s players in the top ten might be contending for alternate spots. Allen will presumably make up ground when players and coaches vote.

Fans can vote for the Pro Bowl through Dec. 23. The 2025 Pro Bowl Games will be held at Camping World Stadium in Orlando on Feb. 2.

Pro Bowl fan voting update is good news for several Broncos players

Pat Surtain and Nik Bonitto are on pace to make the Pro Bowl, but other Broncos players need your vote.

Fan voting for the 2025 NFL Pro Bowl Games opened two weeks and we have received our second round of voting updates. The Denver Broncos have 11 players in the top ten at their respective positions after the second wave of voting.

  • Pat Surtain: 2nd-most votes at cornerback (2nd in AFC)
  • Nik Bonitto: 2nd-most votes at outside linebacker (2nd in AFC)
  • Brandon Jones: 6th-most votes at strong safety (4th in AFC)
  • Wil Lutz: 6th-most votes at kicker (4th in AFC)
  • Michael Burton: 6th-most votes at fullback (4th in AFC)
  • Riley Dixon: 6th-most votes at punter (4th in AFC)
  • Zach Allen: 8th-most votes at defensive tackle (4th-most in the AFC)
  • Bo Nix: 9th-most votes at quarterback (5th in AFC)
  • Marvin Mims: 10th-most votes at returner (4th in AFC)
  • Mitchel Frabroni: 10th-most votes at long snapper (5th in AFC)
  • Tremon Smith: 10th-most votes on special teams (5th in AFC)

Broncos defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers dropped out of the top 10 this week after ranking 10th last week (6th in the AFC). Denver guard Quinn Meinerz has been a massive snub in fan voting, but he should make up ground when players and coaches vote later this month.

Right now, Surtain and Bonitto seem like locks to make it and several players — including Allen — are on track for at least an alternate nod. With double-digit players in the top ten in fan voting, the Broncos should have multiple players in Orlando.

Fans can vote for the Pro Bowl through Dec. 23. The 2025 Pro Bowl Games will be held at Camping World Stadium in Orlando on Feb. 2.

Chiefs newcomer ranks top-five in rookie Pro Bowl voting

The Kansas City #Chiefs have a standout newcomer who is currently in the top-five in Pro Bowl votes among rookies.

The Kansas City Chiefs have a handful of players who could see the Pro Bowl this year, but one unlikely player has found himself among the league leaders in rookie Pro Bowl voting.

Chiefs fullback Carson Steele made a name for himself during the 2024 preseason, where he tallied 149 total yards in three games.

Steele quickly became a fan favorite in Kansas City and found himself on the active roster for the reigning Super Bowl champions as an undrafted free agent out of UCLA.

Though the former Bruin hasn’t seen much playing time this season, fans across the country have taken notice of the up-and-comer in this year’s Pro Bowl voting.

On Friday, the NFL tweeted their list of the top-five rookie vote-getters, with Steele coming in third behind quarterback Jayden Daniels and tight end Brock Bowers.

Chiefs Kingdom can propel Steele to his first Pro Bowl by visiting ProBowl.com/vote or on Twitter with the hashtag #ProBowlVote alongside his official Twitter handle (@CarstonSteele30).

Pro Bowl fan voting update is good news for several Broncos players

The Broncos have 12 players in the top ten at their respective positions in fan voting for the 2025 Pro Bowl.

Fan voting for the 2025 NFL Pro Bowl Games opened last week and we received our first update this week. The Denver Broncos have 12 players in the top ten at their respective positions after the first wave of voting.

  • Pat Surtain: 2nd-most votes at cornerback (2nd in AFC)
  • Nik Bonitto: 3rd-most votes at outside linebacker (2nd in AFC)
  • Zach Allen: 6th-most votes at defensive tackle (3rd-most in the AFC)
  • Brandon Jones: 6th-most votes at strong safety (3rd in AFC)
  • Wil Lutz: 6th-most votes at kicker (4th in AFC)
  • Michael Burton: 7th-most votes at fullback (4th in AFC)
  • Riley Dixon: 7th-most votes at punter (5th in AFC)
  • Bo Nix: 9th-most votes at quarterback (5th in AFC)
  • Mitchel Frabroni: 9th-most votes at long snapper (5th in AFC)
  • Marvin Mims: 10th-most votes at returner (4th in AFC)
  • Tremon Smith: 10th-most votes on special teams (5th in AFC)
  • John Franklin-Myers: 10th-most votes at defensive tackle (6th in AFC)

Strangely, Quinn Meinerz is not among the top ten guards in fan votes. He should make up a lot of ground when players and coaches vote later this month.

Right now, Surtain and Bonitto seem like locks to make it and Allen appears to be on pace to at least get an alternate nod. With so many players in the top ten in fan voting, the Broncos should be well-represented in Orlando.

Fans can vote for the Pro Bowl through Dec. 23. The 2025 Pro Bowl Games will be held at Camping World Stadium in Orlando on Feb. 2.

4 Chargers players in top 10 of Pro Bowl voting

A handful of Chargers players have contributed to the team’s success, and they are being recognized for their efforts.

The Chargers are in a great position. They are currently 8-4 and the leader of the AFC Wild Card. A handful of players have contributed to the team’s success, and they are being recognized for their efforts.

The NFL kicked off Pro Bowl voting on Nov. 25 as fan voting opened for the public. Pro Bowl players are selected by consensus votes of fans, players and coaches. Voting ends on Dec. 23.

Four Chargers players currently rank within the top 10 at their respective positions: Daiyan Henley (9th among inside linebackers), Scott Matlock (8th among fullbacks), Cameron Dicker (4th among kickers) and Joe Alt (6th among offensive tackles).

In his first season as a full-time starter, Henley has been a playmaker in the middle of the Chargers’ defense. He is currently tied for sixth in total tackles (114).

Since coming over to the offensive side of the ball while maintaining his role as a defensive tackle, Matlock has been a reliable two-way player and integral as a lead blocker.

Dicker has accounted for a good grip of the Chargers’ points when the offense struggled to find the end zone. He’s tied for the third-most field goals this season (27), with his longest coming from 59 yards out.

Alt is only in his first season as a pro, but he’s already looked like he’s been in the league for 10 years. He’s been a stonewall in pass protection and a road grader as a run blocker.
