Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, Micah Parsons among Cowboys’ 7 Pro Bowl selections
Jasen Vinlove-USA TODAY Sports

Seven Dallas Cowboys players were named to the 2024 Pro Bowl roster Wednesday, the second-most selections from any team in the NFL behind the San Francisco 49ers (nine).

Cowboys 2024 Pro Bowl selections

Earning the third Pro Bowl selection of his career and first since 2018 is Prescott. The 30-year-old is having arguably his best season to date, throwing for 4,237 yards, a league-leading 32 touchdowns and eight interceptions on 68.4% passing. Prescott’s 104.2 passer rating is tied for the highest of his career since his rookie season in 2016 (104.9).

A good chunk of Prescott’s success has come when targeting Lamb, named to his third Pro Bowl as well. Lamb leads the NFL with 122 receptions, racking up a career-high 1,651 yards and 10 touchdowns. The 24-year-old has scored a touchdown in the last eight games, the longest streak by any Cowboys receiver in team history.

Joining Prescott and Lamb from the offense is Martin, a Pro Bowler in every season since he’s been in the NFL except for the 2020 season when he played in just 10 games. At 33 years old, Martin appears to be showing no signs of slowing down and is now one of six players in Cowboys history to make nine Pro Bowls.

Cowboys’ DaRon Bland, Brandon Aubrey rewarded for historic seasons

Parsons and Bland represent the Cowboys’ selections on the defensive side of the ball. Parsons has continued his dominant start to his NFL career, tallying 13.0 sacks for the third consecutive season, to go along with 32 quarterback hits and 90 pressures. Bland, thrust into the starting role after the season-ending ACL injury to Trevon Diggs, has been one of the best corners in the league this season. Bland leads the league with eight interceptions, five of which he returned for touchdowns, an NFL single-season record.

Both Cowboys’ specialists, Anger and Aubrey, are headed to the Pro Bowl. Anger, a second-time selection, ranks second in the NFL with a 51.4-yard punting average. He leads the league with a 44.3 net average. Aubrey, whom the Cowboys signed out of the USFL, is in the midst of a historic season. He remains a perfect 35-of-35 on field goals, including 9-of-9 from 50 yards or more. Aubrey shattered the NFL record for consecutive field goals to begin a career with 19.
