Seahawks linebacker Bobby Wagner earns AP first-team All-Pro honors

Seattle Seahawks linebacker Bobby Wagner is most certainly on his way to the Hall of Fame following his impressive career. On Friday, Wagner was voted to the Associated Press All-Pro first-team for the sixth time in his career.

Wagner has now been named to the first-team five years in a row and joins only 10 other linebackers in All-Pro history to have earned the honors six times. Those 10 players are all in the Hall of Fame today.

Wagner finished his 2020 NFL regular-season campaign with 138 tackles to lead the team, three sacks, eight passes defensed and 11 quarterback hits.

In addition to Wagner’s nod, Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf and safety Jamal Adams have both been named to the second-team All-Pro for their efforts this year.

According to AP’s Tim Booth, Seattle punter Michael Dickson and long snapper Tyler Ott finished third in the voting at their positions, just missing out on All-Pro selections.
