Multiple Detroit Lions players among leaders in Pro Bowl voting | Sporting News

We are a little over a week into the Pro Bowl voting process and there are a grand total of four Detroit Lions players who are among the leaders at their respective positions.

Running back Jahmyr Gibbs ranks fifth among players at all positions in Pro Bowl votes. However, he is second at his position in the NFC behind Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley, and he’s third in the entire league at running back behind Barkley and Baltimore Ravens rusher Derrick Henry.

The other five Lions who are among the leading vote-getters are right tackle Penei Sewell, center Frank Ragnow, guard Kevin Zeitler and running back Sione Vaki (special teams), all of whom rank first at their respective positions in the NFC. Long snapper Hogan Hatten is second among all vote-getters at his position, although he’s second in the NFC.
