The Ravens are the NFL’s best team, and the AFC power was properly represented on the Pro Bowl team, with seven players named.
Baltimore’s Pro Bowlers are quarterback Lamar Jackson, linebacker Roquan Smith, safety Kyle Hamilton, defensive tackle Justin Madubuike, center Tyler Linderbaum, linebacker Patrick Queen, and kicker Justin Tucker.

It’s the first time for Hamilton, Madubuike, Queen, and Linderbaum – all players General Manager Eric DeCosta drafted.
The process isn’t perfect, and there were several Ravens who were well deserving, and left off the list.
Jadeveon Clowney

ESPN’s Seth Walder had this to say about the former No. 1 overall pick.
“Clowney ranks fifth in pass rush win rate among edge rushers on a great Baltimore defense. Ultimately, the difference in sacks and turnovers created by Khalil Mack and Josh Allen were too much to overcome, but on a down-to-down basis Clowney has certainly been impactful. He’s solid against the run as well, bolstering his case.”
Clowney’s logged a career high 9 sacks, along with 50 QB hurries, 10 QB hits and 69 QB pressures.
Kevin Zeitler

If you’re not going to name Marcus Williams to the Pro Bowl, then Stone was deserving after logging 7 interceptions during the Ravens initial strong start to the regular season.
Stone leads all NFL safeties in interceptions and is still second in the NFL despite a reduced role.
Gus Edwards

Edwards 762 yards are second to Lamar Jackson (821) on the Ravens, but he’s a physical ball-carrier who’s logged a team leading 13 touchdowns, and 56 first downs.
Patrick Ricard

Alec Ingold is a solid player, but Ricard has played the role fullback, tight end, offensive tackle and H-Back for the top ranked Ravens.
Ricard is the second highest graded fullback in the NFL via PFF.
