Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce narrowly beat out Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs as the fans’ top vote-getter for the 2025 Pro Bowl Games on Feb. 2 in Orlando.
Amid another strong season for the AFC’s No. 1 seed, Kelce totaled 252,200 votes when balloting ended on Dec. 23, just ahead of Gibbs (252,082).
Following Gibbs were a trio of quarterbacks — the Washington Commanders’ Jayden Daniels (242,352), the Cincinnati Bengals’ Joe Burrow (239,526) and the Lions’ Jared Goff (225,858).
NFL Network’s “Good Morning Football” will reveal the rosters for the AFC and NFC on Thursday.
Gibbs and Goff helped the Lions — who have a chance to clinch the NFC’s No. 1 seed Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings — finish first among all NFL teams in total votes, ahead of the Vikings, Commanders, Philadelphia Eagles and Pittsburgh Steelers.
Along with the fan votes, players and coaches also have a say in the makeup of the rosters. Players and coaches had a Dec. 27 deadline to submit their ballots.
The Pro Bowl Games, which culminate in a flag football game led by head coaches Peyton Manning (AFC) and Eli Manning (NFC), will air on Feb. 2 from 3-6 p.m. ET on ESPN and ABC.
A Pro Bowl Skills Show will be held on Jan. 30 from 7-8:30 p.m. ET in a made-for-TV event on ESPN. NFL stars will display their skills and competitiveness in unique competitions on and off the field.
