Four Ravens top their position in AFC Pro Bowl fan voting in the first tabulation released by the league Dec. 6.
Kevin Zeitler leads all AFC guards, while Roquan Smith tops the vote at inside linebacker, and safeties Geno Stone and Kyle Hamilton lead at free and strong safety, respectively. Of the four, only Smith has earned Pro Bowl recognition, which he received for the first time last year.
Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa leads all vote-getters with 59,680 votes, followed by Houston Texans rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud (44,095).
Fan voting continues through Dec. 25 at ProBowl.com/vote.
The Pro Bowl players are ultimately selected through a vote of fans, players and coaches, with each group’s vote counting one-third toward final recognition. Players and coaches will cast their votes on Dec. 29.
The NFL has moved away from an actual game for the Pro Bowl and will again hold a Pro Bowl Games multiday event featuring skills competitions leading up to a flag football game on Sunday, Feb. 4, in Orlando, Fla.
