Packers have 5 different top vote getters in early Pro Bowl voting

Two free-agent additions and two specialists are among the five Green Bay Packers players currently leading their respective positions in Pro Bowl votes through the first week of fan voting.

Outside linebacker Preston Smith, strong safety Adrian Amos, kicker Mason Crosby, punter JK Scott and offensive tackle David Bakhtiari are all the leading vote getters in the NFC at their individual positions so far, according to the NFL.

Overall, the Packers have received the third-most total votes, trailing only the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers.

Smith, who signed a four-year, $52 million deal in March, leads the Packers and ranks fourth in the NFL in sacks (10).

Amos, who also signed a four-year deal, has 53 tackles, one interception, two pass breakups resulting in interceptions and one pass breakup preventing a two-point conversion.

Crosby, 35, has made 13-of-14 field goals and all 29 extra points. His 92.9 field goal percentage ranks fourth in the NFL, and he’s one of only six kicker without an extra point miss.

Scott, a second-year pro, is averaging 45.9 total yards and 41.9 net yards per punt, both career-highs. He ranks eighth in the NFL in punts downed inside the 20 (19).

Bakhtiari, a three-time All-Pro, remains one of the NFL’s top pass-blocking offensive tackles. He ranks third among offensive tackles in pass block win rate, per ESPN.

Pro Bowl rosters will be announced on Dec. 17. Fan voting is open through Dec. 12. The 2020 Pro Bowl is scheduled for Jan. 26.
