Quinnen Williams has been selected to the Pro Bowl for the third consecutive year, continuing his dominant presence on the field. The New York Jets’ standout defensive tackle will replace Kansas City Chiefs’ Chris Jones on the AFC roster after Jones’ team secured a spot in Super Bowl LIX with a dramatic win over the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship.
Williams, who was originally the first alternate, now joins a prestigious group of interior defensive linemen, solidifying his status as one of the NFL’s top performers. The Pro Bowl selections are made based on a combination of fan, coach, and player voting, with each group’s input contributing equally.
The 2025 Pro Bowl roster is notably filled with talent from Alabama football, with 11 players from the state earning spots. This includes 10 former Alabama players, such as Detroit Lions safety Brian Branch, Philadelphia Eagles offensive lineman Landon Dickerson, and Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry. However, Dickerson will be replaced on the NFC roster by Carolina Panthers guard Robert Hunt due to his Super Bowl appearance.
The Pro Bowl Games will culminate in a 7-on-7 flag football game on Sunday, February 4, at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida, following a multi-day showcase of both football and non-football competitions between AFC and NFC stars.
With Alabama’s extensive presence, including players like Minkah Fitzpatrick, Marlon Humphrey, and Patrick Surtain II, the Pro Bowl Games promise to highlight the state’s continued football dominance.
