Alabama’s football legacy was recently celebrated as twelve players with Alabama football roots were selected for the Pro Bowl Games in the 2024 season. This brings the total number of players from Alabama high schools and colleges who have been chosen for the Pro Bowl Games, Pro Bowl, AFL All-Star Game, or Pro All-Star Game to 146.
Among these selections, Maxie Baughan, John Hannah, Walter Jones, Derrick Thomas, and DeMarcus Ware were chosen for nine Pro Bowls each, tying for the most selections for any NFL player from an Alabama high school or college. Notable current players like Minkah Fitzpatrick and Derrick Henry have five selections apiece, hinting at the potential to catch up to these nine-timers.
Philadelphia Eagles guard Landon Dickerson and Denver Broncos cornerback Patrick Surtain II are highlighted as players who have the early career pace and likely playing time ahead of them to make a run at joining the exclusive nine-time Pro Bowl club.
The Pro Bowl Games for 2024 are set to resume at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida, this Sunday. The NFC currently leads the AFC 14-7 in Pro Bowl Games. The celebration of Alabama’s football excellence spans generations, with players like Bo Jackson, Bart Starr, and Derrick Henry all making their mark in the prestigious Pro Bowl Games.
