Pro Bowl voting is underway. On Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network released a list of the top 10 vote earners at every position.
Five Washington Commanders, led by quarterback Sam Howell, were among the top 10 at their respective positions.
Here’s the complete list for Washington:
- QB Sam Howell: 10th
- KR Antonio Gibson: 7th
- DT Jonathan Allen: 8th
- S Kam Curl: 4th
- S Terrell Burgess (special teams): 1st
Obviously, Burgess is the biggest surprise here. Safety Jeremy Reaves was named to the Pro Bowl as a special-teamer last season and also earned first-team All-Pro honors. Reaves was lost for the season with a knee injury in Week 5. Burgess was signed over the summer.
It’s been an up-and-down season for Howell. The second-year quarterback has had many good moments this season, but does have 14 interceptions and has been sacked 58 times.
Gibson is averaging 24.3 yards per kick return. Allen, who has been named to the last two Pro Bowls, is having a down season, along with every other member of Washington’s defense. Speaking of the defense, Curl is looking to make his first Pro Bowl in what has been a down season for him, too.
Pro Bowl voting ends on Dec. 25.
The traditional Pro Bowl was replaced by “Pro Bowl Games” last season, and four Commanders participated: Allen, Terry McLaurin, Daron Payne and Tress Way.
