3 Dolphins among early leaders in 2026 Pro Bowl Games voting

Three Miami Dolphins were among the leading vote-getters at their positions in the NFL's first update on 2026 Pro Bowl Games ballots.

De'Von Achane was sixth among running backs (third in the AFC), Alec Ingold was fourth among fullbacks (second in the AFC), and Jordyn Brooks was second among inside linebackers (first in the AFC). No other Dolphins were top 10 at the position.

Achane is currently third in the NFL in rushing yards after crossing 1,000 for the first time in his career. His 1,404 yards from scrimmage rank sixth behind only the five running backs who currently have more Pro Bowl votes: Jonathan Taylor, Jahmyr Gibbs, Christian McCaffrey, Bijan Robinson, and James Cook.

Brooks leads the NFL in tackles with 137 and has nine tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, and one forced fumble.

While Ingold is near the top of the voting at his position, that's partly due to a lack of candidates. Only 11 fullbacks are on the NFL's Pro Bowl ballot, including a few players who have minimal roles.

For the 5-7 Dolphins, there aren't many deserving players who were omitted from the list. However, center Aaron Brewer and punter Ryan Bailey have been among the best in the league and didn't land in the top 10 at their respective positions. Bailey leads the NFL in net yards per punt (45.7) and has downed 17 punts inside the opponents' 20-yard line with only one touchback so far in 2025.

Fan votes account for one third of the Pro Bowl selection process with voting from NFL players and coaches accounting for the other two thirds.
