Additionally, TE Mark Andrews, ILB Chris Board (special teams), G Daniel Faalele, LS Nick Moore, T Ronnie StanleyK Justin Tucker and OLB Kyle Van Noy were voted as Pro Bowl alternates.

Seven of the nine All-Stars are homegrown Ravens (six draft picks – Flowers, Hamilton, Humphrey, Jackson, Linderbaum and Madubuike; one undrafted free agent – Ricard).

ZAY FLOWERS – FIRST PRO BOWL

  • Earning his first Pro Bowl honor, WR Zay Flowers has produced a career-high 1,047 receiving yards on 73 receptions this season, while adding four receiving touchdowns for a Ravens offense that leads the league averaging 424.2 yards per game.
  • Flowers’ five games with at least 100 receiving yards are tied (with five other NFL wideouts) for the NFL’s most, entering Week 18. His mark also ties Mark Andrews (2021) for the most such games in Ravens single-season history.
  • In 2024, Flowers became the first player in Ravens history to record a 1,000-yard receiving season within the first two years of his career. He also became the fastest player in franchise history to reach 100 career receptions (21 games).
  • Flowers is the first Ravens wide receiver to earn Pro Bowl honors.

KYLE HAMILTON – SECOND PRO BOWL (STARTER)

  • Earning his second-consecutive Pro Bowl nod, S Kyle Hamilton’s 7.7 yards per completion allowed leads all players at his position (min. 40 targets), while his career-high 104 tackles (74 solo) are tied for the third most by an AFC safety. Furthermore, Hamilton has one interception, nine passes defensed, four tackles for loss, two sacks, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery for a Ravens defense that ranks No. 1 in yards (267.0), passing yards (171.2) and points (16.3) per game allowed since Week 11.
  • Hamilton is the NFL’s only defensive back to post at least 100 tackles, an interception, two sacks and two forced fumbles. He is also the first Ravens defensive back to reach those marks in a single season.
  • Hamilton joins Hall of Famer Ed Reed (2003 & 2004) as the only Ravens defensive backs to earn multiple Pro Bowl nods within the first three years of a career.

DERRICK HENRY – FIFTH PRO BOWL (STARTER)

8
  • Named to his fifth-career Pro Bowl, RB Derrick Henry has totaled the AFC’s most rushing yards (1,783 – second overall in the NFL), while tying for the league’s second-most rushing touchdowns (14) and leading all qualified running backs with a 5.8 yards-per-carry mark. Henry’s 16 scrimmage touchdowns rank second in the NFL behind James Cook (17) and stand as the most total touchdowns in Ravens single-season history.
  • Henry reached the end zone in each of his first 11 games, becoming the fourth player since 1970 to accomplish this feat, joining Hall of Famers O.J. Simpson (first 14 in 1975), Jerry Rice (first 12 in 1987) and John Riggins (first 12 in 1983).
  • En route to a Week 4 AFC Offensive Player of the Week award – one of two such honors in 2024 (also Week 6) – Henry registered a season-high 199 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown, while adding a five-yard receiving touchdown, vs. Buffalo. His 87-yard rushing score on the Ravens’ first play from scrimmage marked the longest rush in franchise history.
  • Henry is the first Ravens running back since Mark Ingram II (2019) to earn Pro Bowl recognition.

MARLON HUMPHREY – FOURTH PRO BOWL

  • Selected to his fourth Pro Bowl in the past six seasons, CB Marlon Humphrey’s career-high six interceptions (including one pick-six) lead all AFC defenders, while his 14 passes defensed are the conference’s fifth most. Additionally, Humphrey has notched 63 tackles (47 solo) – including a career-best five tackles for loss – two forced fumbles and a half-sack for a Ravens defense that ranks No. 1 in yards (267.0), passing yards (171.2) and points (16.3) per game allowed since Week 11.
  • Humphrey is the first NFL defender to notch at least five interceptions, five tackles for loss and two forced fumbles in a season since Shaquille Leonard did so in 2019. With a tackle for loss in Week 15, Humphrey joined Ray Lewis as the only players in franchise history to total at least 20 tackles for loss, 15 interceptions and five sacks throughout a career.
  • Humphrey is the NFL’s only active player with at least 15 interceptions and 15 forced fumbles, and he is one of three players in franchise history (Hall of Famers Ray Lewis & Ed Reed) to total double-digit interceptions and forced fumbles throughout a career.
  • Humphrey is now just one of two Ravens defensive backs (also Ed Reed – nine) to earn four or more Pro Bowl nods.

LAMAR JACKSON – FOURTH PRO BOWL

  • Selected to his fourth-career Pro Bowl, QB Lamar Jackson has thrown a franchise-record 39 touchdown passes (tied for second in the NFL), while posting the NFL’s highest passer rating (121.6) and touchdown-to-interception ratio (9.8), to go along with a league-best 8.9 yards gained per pass attempt. Jackson’s 3,955 passing yards also mark a career best, while his 852 rushing yards lead all AFC quarterbacks (he also has four rushing scores).
  • Jackson has recorded seven games this season with a passer rating of at least 135, setting an NFL single-season record. His league-best 121.6 passer rating also stands as the second-best single-season mark in NFL history, eclipsed only by Aaron Rodgers (122.5) in 2011.
  • Jackson (6,110 rushing yards) surpassed Michael Vick (6,109) for the most rushing yards by a quarterback in NFL history. His seven campaigns (2018-24) of reaching 600 rushing yards are three more than any other quarterback in NFL history (Cam Newton & Michael Vick – four apiece).
  • In the Ravens’ Week 15 matchup at the Giants, Jackson became the first player in NFL regular season history to complete 80% of his passes for at least 250 yards and five touchdowns with zero interceptions, while adding 50-plus rushing yards. His six career outings with at least five passing touchdowns and zero interceptions are the third most in NFL history, trailing only Tom Brady and Drew Brees (eight apiece).

  • Named to his second-straight Pro Bowl, DT Nnamdi Madubuike has tallied 6.5 sacks, 39 tackles (20 solo), 10 tackles for loss, one forced fumble and one pass defensed for a Ravens defense that ranks No. 1 in yards (267.0), passing yards (171.2) and points (16.3) per game allowed since Week 11.
  • With Madubuike manning the trenches, Baltimore also owns the NFL’s No. 1 rush defense, allowing 81.6 ground yards per game and a league-best 3.59 yards per carry.
  • In Baltimore’s Week 10 win vs. Cincinnati, Madubuike notched a career-high three sacks. Dating back to 2022, his 25 sacks are the NFL’s second most by a defensive tackle (Chris Jones – 31).
  • Madubuike joins Sam Adams and Haloti Ngata as the only Ravens interior D-linemen to earn multiple Pro Bowls in a career.

PATRICK RICARD – FIFTH PRO BOWL

  • Earning his fifth Pro Bowl honor, FB Patrick Ricard has played a key role blocking for Baltimore’s No. 1 offense (424.2 yards per game), which also stands first in yards per play (6.9) and red zone efficiency (74.2%). The Ravens have also produced the AFC’s second-most points per game (30.2) and second-best third-down conversation rate (48.0%), while their 6,787 net yards stand as a single-season franchise record.
  • Baltimore’s rushing attack averages an NFL-high 5.7 yards per carry, while also registering an AFC-best 185.6 yards per game (second overall in the NFL).
  • The Ravens’ 12 games with at least 150 rushing yards are the NFL’s most and tie for the second-most such games in single-season franchise history. Baltimore has also averaged at least 5.0 yards per carry in a league-high 13 games, tied for the most such contests in single-season franchise history.
  • Ricard is the eighth player in Ravens franchise history to be selected to at least five Pro Bowls.

ROQUAN SMITH – THIRD PRO BOWL (STARTER)

  • Earning his third-consecutive Pro Bowl nod, ILB Roquan Smith’s 144 tackles (78 solo) rank fifth in the NFL, while his eight double-digit tackle outings tie for the second in the league.
