Why it matters

The Bengals' strong representation at the Pro Bowl Games reflects the team's success this season and the individual talents of their top players. Burrow's third Pro Bowl selection in his young career further cements his status as one of the league's elite quarterbacks.

The details

Burrow started 8 games this season, completing 173-of-259 pass attempts for 1,809 yards, 17 touchdowns, and 5 interceptions. He missed time due to a grade 3 toe sprain in Week 2 that required surgery, but returned in Week 13 and played well down the stretch, leading the NFL in completions (152) and ranking highly in several other key passing stats over the final 6 weeks.

  • Burrow's Pro Bowl selection was announced on Sunday, February 1, 2026.
  • The 2026 Pro Bowl Games will take place on Tuesday, February 3, 2026 in San Francisco.
