And from AFC, the list includes:

• Lamar Jackson (Baltimore Ravens)
Tua Tagovailoa (Miami Dolphins)
Patrick Mahomes (Kansas City Chiefs)

Niners’ QB Brock Purdy got the most fan votes at 451,864, leading all players. On the AFC side, Jackson received the highest number of votes at 414,502. This Pro Bowl roster from the NFC side doesn’t have any big surprises to offer to the fans as the three mentioned players were expected to be a part of the games due to their splendid performances, even in the MVP race. However, some people feel there is a bit of disappointment in the AFC.

The Bills QB Josh Allen didn’t make the list for the Pro Bowl. Many football enthusiasts believe that Allen should have been chosen over Patrick Mahomes, despite the Chiefs QB being in fairly good form. But based on statistics, Mahomes, despite having the same touchdown score (27), is ahead of Allen in passing yards. The reigning MVP has 4,183 passing yards to show on his stats, while Allen has 3,947 passing yards this season. However, despite some criticism showing up, the excitement for the Pro Bowl remains at its peak.
