With the 2025 NFL regular season winding down, voting results for the 2026 Pro Bowl Games have been announced. The Pro Bowl Games will be played Feb. 3 in San Francisco, and Mississippi State football will be well-represented, with three former players making the rosters.

Dallas Cowboys' Dak Prescott named to fourth Pro Bowl

Mississippi State's greatest player of all time and the program's greatest representative was once again named among the best signal-callers in the NFL. Dallas Cowboys' QB Dak Prescott has been voted to the Pro Bowl for the fourth time in his career. Prescott is enjoying one of the best seasons of his career. He's completed 68.5% of his passes for 4,175 yards and 28 TDs, also rushing for two scores. He's leading a Dallas offense that's among the best in the NFL.

Despite his success, the Cowboys won't be in the postseason, as they're just 6-8-1 on the year due to a terrible defense. But team struggles aside, Dak Prescott has again shown just how dominant he can be at the QB position.

Kansas City Chiefs' Chris Jones named to seventh Pro Bowl

No Mississippi State football alum has experienced a greater NFL career than Chris Jones, and he's continued that in 2025. Jones was named to his seventh-straight Pro Bowl. His seven selections is the most ever by a former Bulldog. The defensive tackle has posted 24 tackles, 4.0 sacks, and 7.5 stuffs this season for Kansas City, continuing his run as one of the NFL's best defensive linemen.

It's another accolade for the three-time Super Bowl champion. Unfortunately for Jones, he won't get the chance to add more postseason honors to his resume this year. The Chiefs, 6-9, will miss the playoffs for the first time since 2014, as they've had horrific luck in close games. Still, Jones individually remains fantastic.

Tennessee Titans' Jeffery Simmons named to fourth Pro Bowl

With a 3-12 record, there hasn't been much for the Tennessee Titans to celebrate. But Bulldog alum Jeffery Simmons is certainly one player they can rally behind. The seventh-year defensive lineman was named to the Pro Bowl for the fourth time in his career. Simmons has racked up 58 tackles with career-highs in sacks (9.0) and stuffs (11.5). He also caught a TD while lining up on offense! Jeffery Simmons has been absolutely dominant for the Titans, and he's cemented himself as the true face of the franchise.
