Ja'Marr Chase Selected to AFC Team for 2026 Pro Bowl Games
The NFL has announced that Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase has been selected to the AFC team for the 2026 Pro Bowl Games. Chase, a first-round draft pick in 2021, has earned Pro Bowl honors in each of his first five seasons, joining A.J. Green as the only Bengals players to achieve this feat. He has been voted as a starter at wide receiver for the second consecutive season. Chase, a fifth-year player from Louisiana State University, ranks second in the NFL in receptions and fourth in receiving yards this season, with five receiving touchdowns. He has surpassed 100 receiving yards in seven games, setting a Bengals record for a single season. Chase is now one of six players in Bengals history with at least five Pro Bowl selections, alongside notable names like Anthony Munoz and Chad Johnson.
In addition to Chase, three Bengals players have been named alternates for the AFC team. Tee Higgins is a second alternate, DJ Turner II is a third alternate, and Charlie Jones is a fifth alternate as a kick return specialist. Alternates may be added to the Pro Bowl roster if voted players in their position group are unable to participate due to Super Bowl appearances or injuries. The 2026 Pro Bowl Games will be held on Tuesday, Feb. 3 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, California, and will be broadcast live on ESPN.
