The 2024 Eagles have 6 Pro Bowlers (and 2 obvious snubs)

Plus, 12 more were named Pro Bowl alternates.

The NFL officially announced the 2025 Pro Bowl Games rosters on Thursday morning and the Philadelphia Eagles have six players who made the NFC team.

The list:

• RB Saquon Barkley — 3rd Pro Bowl (2018, 2022, 2024)
• LB Zack Baun — 1st Pro Bowl (2024)
• DT Jalen Carter — 1st Pro Bowl (2024)
• OG Landon Dickerson — 3rd Pro Bowl (2022, 2023, 2024)
• OT Lane Johnson — 6th Pro Bowl (2017, 2018, 2019, 2022, 2023, 2024)
• C Cam Jurgens — 1st Pro Bowl (2024)

The NFL also announced 12 Eagles alternates:

• WR A.J. Brown (1st alternate)
• OT Jordan Mailata (1st alternate)
• CB Quinyon Mitchell (1st alternate)
• EDGE Josh Sweat (1st alternate)
• QB Jalen Hurts (2nd alternate)
• CB Darius Slay (3rd alternate)
• LS Rick Lovato (3rd alternate)
• PR Cooper DeJean (4th alternate)
• P Braden Mann (4th alternate)
• K Jake Elliott (5th alternate)
• DE Brandon Graham (5th alternate)
• ST Kelee Ringo (5th alternate)

Some thoughts:

• As an MVP candidate, Barkley was a no-brainer. He’ll probably end up as Offensive Player of the Year. The Eagles have had three different Pro Bowl running backs over the last three years: Miles Sanders in 2022, D’Andre Swift in 2023, and now Barkley in 2024. RB Factory.
• Baun getting Pro Bowl love is great to see. But it would really be an injustice if it stopped there. Baun deserves to make first-team All-Pro with how awesome he’s been this year. Baun is the first Eagles off-ball linebacker to make the Pro Bowl since Jeremiah Trotter Sr. in 2005, by the way.
• Very cool to see Carter get the respect he deserves. His stats aren’t gaudy; he’s actually going to finish with fewer sacks this year (4.5) than he did as a rookie (6). But anyone measuring him solely by the box score is clearly missing how he’s a total beast. Carter is the Eagles’ first Pro Bowl defensive tackle since Javon Hargrave in 2021.
• Dickerson has his third Pro Bowl in his fourth NFL season. If he stays healthy and continues to be great, he has a real chance to overtake Chuck Bednarik for the most Pro Bowl selections (8) in franchise history.
• Johnson is now tied with Fletcher Cox and Donovan McNabb for six career Pro Bowl selections. The only players with more: Chuck Bednarik (8), Jason Kelce (7), Jason Peters (7), Brian Dawkins (7), and Reggie White (7). It remains to be seen how much longer Johnson, who turns 35 in May, will keep playing. But he’s not currently showing any signs of slowing down. Still elite.
• Jurgens making the Pro Bowl isn’t surprising based on merit but sometimes it takes a guy getting snubbed one year for him to make it the next season. Fortunately for him, he didn’t have to go through that process in his first full season taking over for Jason Kelce at center. The last time the Eagles didn’t have a center make the Pro Bowl was 2018.
• A.J. Brown and Jordan Mailata not making the team is obviously laughable. I mean, come on.

• DeVonta Smith has yet to make a Pro Bowl. Which feels so weird because he’s so obviously that kind of caliber player. Tough for him, though, when A.J. Brown is also on his team and he’s up against a lot of other really good WRs. I don’t think DeVonta loses sleep over this stuff but I do think it would be nice for him to eventually get some Pro Bowl recognition.
• Mitchell being a first alternate as a rookie is pretty cool.
• I wonder where Brandon Graham would’ve finished if he didn’t get hurt.

The flag football game at the 2025 Pro Bowl Games will take place on Sunday, February 2. The Eagles will hope that their players are preparing for the Super Bowl instead of hanging out down in Orlando.
