Despite not reaching the record of 12 Pro Bowlers set in 2022, Alabama football continues its streak of producing exceptional talent recognized in the Pro Bowl.
Alabama running back Josh Jacobs celebrates a 77-yard touchdown run against Louisville with wide receiver Jerry Jeudy. While the Crimson Tide had more former players among the 2024 all-stars than any other college program, this season’s selections did not reach the Alabama record for Pro Bowl ers in one season – 12 in 2022. But the selection process isn’t over.
Players from the Super Bowl teams do not participate in the Pro Bowl, and those two clubs usually have an all-star representation commensurate with their success. Those missing all-stars are replaced on the Pro Bowl roster from the alternate pool, as are players who decline their invitations because of injuries. Last season, seven former Alabama players were chosen for the original Pro Bowl rosters. But the Crimson Tide ended up with 11 Pro Bowlers for 2023 because of the addition of four alternates as replacement players. In 2022, the original Pro Bowl selections included 11 Alabama alumni, and one more was added before the game. Ten is the starting point for Pro Bowlers from Alabama this season, already pushing to three seasons the Crimson Tide’s production of double-digit Pro Bowlers. Alabama has had at least one Pro Bowl alumnus every season since coming up empty in 2011. In 2012, Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones started the current 13-season streak with the first of his seven Pro Bowl selections.Branch, Jeudy and McKinney are first-time Pro Bowlers. They bring to 56 the number of Crimson Tide alumni who have totaled 162 selections for the Pro Bowl, AFL All-Star Game, Pro All-Star Game and now the Pro Bowl Games
