Ravens QB Lamar Jackson beat out Bills star Josh Allen to make The Associated Press All-Pro first team for the second straight year.

Lamar Jackson joined some illustrious company with his third selection to The Associated Press NFL All-Pro Team. Now he hopes the postseason success will follow.

The prestigious team was announced Friday and Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was picked as the starting QB over Josh Allen, another indication that voters have a love affair with Baltimore’s superstar.

The Ravens quarterback certainly has the respect of his peers: he was the NFLPA All-Pro team's quarterback in 2023 as well (that year ended with Jackson winning his second MVP award). Jackson and Baltimore open their playoff campaign on Saturday at home against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Lamar Jackson — Allen's top competition for the NFL's Most Valuable Player award this season — made the first team. He received 30 first-place votes to Allen’s 18. There are 50 votes overall among nationwide NFL members of the media.

For the third time in his career, the Baltimore Ravens quarterback earned AP First-Team All-Pro honors. In 2019 and '23, Jackson followed that up by taking home the MVP. Barring something unforeseen, he's on track to win his third Most Valuable Player award, beating out Allen, who is still looking for his first MVP.

Lamar Jackson and Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen are two NFL stars competing for the season MVP award, so in that context they were compared by a key Baltimore Ravens weapon.

The NFL playoffs are set with a 14-team field, including four new teams compared to last season. The Minnesota Vikings , Washington Commanders , Los Angeles Chargers, and Denver Broncos are back in the postseason and have a chance of making Super Bowl 59.

On social media, the NFL shared the news about the Associated Press All-Pro selections, including the All-Pro First Team Offense. Interestingly, Jackson was named to the group, with Allen missing out. In fact, no Bills player made it to the list.

The NFL MVP vote hasn't been cast yet — but if All-Pro votes are any indication, then Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson might hold the edge over Buffal
