The NFL revealed the top five vote-getters for the 2025 Pro Bowl Games, which will take place in February. Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce led all players in fan balloting with 252,200 votes. He was followed by Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs, Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels (242,352), Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (239,526) and Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff (225,858).

Fan voting concluded on Monday, Dec. 23, and the AFC and NFC player rosters for the Pro Bowl games will be announced on Thursday, Jan. 2 on NFL Network’s Good Morning Football. The player selections for the rosters will be determined by the votes of fans, players and coaches, and each group’s vote counts as one-third toward determining the players who will take part in the Pro Bowl Games. NFL players and coaches voted on Friday, Dec. 27.

The head coaches for the Pro Bowl Games will be Peyton Manning and Eli Manning. This will be the third consecutive season the Manning brothers will coach the flag football game.

“The Pro Bowl Games are all about having fun,” Peyton Manning said in a press release. “It’s always unpredictable, and we get to bring fans into the action and see the NFL’s biggest names compete. And the best part about this year’s games is knowing that my AFC team is going to end Eli’s two-year run of luck with the NFC.”

“Only the Pro Bowl Games bring together the greatest players in the NFL in one location, giving fans the chance to see both their competitiveness and their helmets-off personalities,” Peter O’Reilly, executive vice president, club business, international, and league events at the NFL, said in a press release in November. “We are thrilled the Mannings are returning as coaches to renew their rivalry. Peyton and Eli have been in the lab concocting some amazing new skills competitions that we’ll reveal soon. And, we know Orlando will deliver an unforgettable live event for fans, players and their families that celebrates the best in the NFL.”

The NFL switched to the Pro Bowl games format in 2023. The event replaced the full-contact football game that began in 1951. This year’s Pro Bowl games will take place at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida on Feb. 2.
