The NFL dropped its Pro Bowl rosters Tuesday morning, and once again, the San Francisco 49ers are flexing their muscle across the league. Six Niners earned nods this year, a testament to both their star power and the depth that’s helped fuel their dominant season. Here’s a closer look at the crew heading to the Pro Bowl:
Luke Gifford
Gifford might not be a household name, but he’s been a quiet force on special teams all season.
He leads the 49ers in both snaps and tackles in the third phase of the game, and he’s among the league leaders in special teams tackles - a stat that doesn’t always get the love it deserves but speaks volumes about his consistency and hustle. For a team that’s taken a big leap in special teams performance this year, Gifford’s recognition is well-earned.
Kyle Juszczyk
At this point, Juszczyk’s Pro Bowl appearances feel like clockwork.
The veteran fullback continues to be one of the most versatile chess pieces in the league - a lead blocker, pass catcher, occasional ball carrier, and always a tone-setter. His impact doesn’t always show up in the box score, but coaches and fans alike know just how valuable he is to the 49ers' offensive engine.
George Kittle
No, Kittle might not hit the 1,000-yard mark this season, but don’t let the numbers fool you - his presence is as impactful as ever.
Whether he’s paving the way in the run game, chipping edge rushers to buy time, or making clutch catches in traffic, Kittle remains one of the most complete tight ends in football. He brings physicality, leadership, and a spark to every snap, and the Pro Bowl nod reflects that all-around excellence.
Christian McCaffrey
What more can you say?
McCaffrey crossed the 1,000-yard rushing mark on Monday night and continues to be a nightmare for defenses. He’s racked up nine rushing touchdowns, 92 receptions, and 849 receiving yards - numbers that scream dominance.
A 1,000-1,000 season is squarely in his sights, and if he hits it, he’ll join one of the NFL’s most exclusive clubs. His ability to impact the game from anywhere on the field makes him one of the most dangerous weapons in football.
Jon Weeks
Long snappers don’t usually grab headlines, but Weeks’ selection speaks to how far the 49ers’ special teams unit has come.
The operation has been cleaner, more consistent, and more impactful - and Weeks has been a steady hand in the middle of it all. It’s not always clear how long snappers get on the Pro Bowl ballot, but when one does, it usually means they’ve been flawless.
That’s Weeks this season.
Trent Williams
At 37 years old, Williams is still playing like the best left tackle in football.
His technique, strength, and football IQ remain elite, and he’s only gotten sharper as the season has gone on. Whether he’s stonewalling edge rushers or bulldozing defenders in the run game, Williams continues to be a foundational piece of San Francisco’s offense - and his Pro Bowl selection is just another reminder of his Hall of Fame-caliber career.
Also worth noting: Skyy Moore was named an alternate, and for good reason. He’s brought juice to the return game this season, giving the 49ers a spark in the field position battle week after week.
All in all, this Pro Bowl haul reflects what we’ve seen all year: the 49ers are loaded with talent, playing high-level football in all three phases. If this group keeps performing the way they have, don’t be surprised if they’re not just Pro Bowlers - but key players in a deep postseason run.
