The NFL announced their annual All-Pro Teams on Friday with Notre Dame being very-well represented.
How represented?
No school had more players named than the Fighting Irish, who take up three of the five spots on the First-Team offensive line, none of which come as a surprise.
Ronnie Stanley was named the left tackle after having a monster year for the Baltimore Ravens, who hold the No. 1 seed in the AFC. It is Stanley’s first time being an All-Pro.
Joining him are guards Zack Martin of the Dallas Cowboys and Quenton Nelson of the Indianapolis Colts.
This is Martin’s sixth appearance as an All-Pro while it is the second time in two years Nelson receives the honor.
No program has more NFL All-Pro First Team selections than we do.

All three played at Notre Dame during Harry Hiestand’s time at the school, something we discussed earlier this week on Fighting Irish Wire.
