UPDATE: The Dallas Cowboys are making headlines as five players have been selected for the NFL Pro Bowl Games, marking the second consecutive year the team achieves this milestone. Confirmed just hours ago, quarterback Dak Prescott, receiver George Pickens, offensive lineman Tyler Smith, defensive lineman Quinnen Williams, and kicker Brandon Aubrey will represent the Cowboys at the prestigious event.
This selection is critical as it highlights the Cowboys’ strong season, with the team tied for the second-most selections overall, trailing only the Baltimore Ravens, Denver Broncos, San Francisco 49ers, and Seattle Seahawks, each with six selections. Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones expressed pride in the achievement, stating, “We’ve got some very deserving guys on there,” during his interview on 105.3 The Fan (KRLD-FM).
Dak Prescott earns his fourth Pro Bowl nod following an impressive season where he accumulated 4,175 yards and 28 touchdowns in just 15 games. This marks the fourth time Prescott has surpassed the 4,000-yard milestone in his career. His performance has not only solidified his status as a top quarterback but also showcases his leadership in the franchise.
In a notable first, George Pickens joins the Pro Bowl, reflecting his breakout season as Prescott’s top target. Pickens recorded career-highs of 1,342 yards and nine touchdowns, significantly contributing to the Cowboys’ offensive success.
Meanwhile, Quinnen Williams, a pivotal addition to the team before the NFL trade deadline, secures his fourth consecutive Pro Bowl selection, standing as the Cowboys’ sole defensive representative. Tyler Smith, drafted in the first round of 2022, makes his third straight Pro Bowl appearance, underscoring his impact on the offensive line.
Lastly, Brandon Aubrey is recognized for his consistent kicking, converting 32 of 36 field goal attempts this season, including an impressive 9-of-13 on kicks of 50 yards or more.
