Two Eagles players named on AP All-Pro Team

Before the Philadelphia Eagles competed in their first playoffs in two years, the Associated Press announced their prestigious All-Pro Team and two Eagles were selected:

This is Jason Kelce’s fourth time as the All-Pro First Team, and this year he was also elected to his fifth Pro Bowl team. Kelce is the 12th center in NFL History to win all-team First four times; The 11 other centers that have previously achieved this honor in NFL history are all in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Kelce is also the seventh player in Eagles Franchise history to receive four AP All-Pro First Team picks, along with Chuck Bednarik (6), Reggie White (6), Pete Pihos (5), Steve Van Buren (5), Brian Dawkins (4) and Al Wistert (4). All those men except Wistert are also in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. As Kelce started his 122nd consecutive game in NFL Week 18, he ranked higher on the list of Eagles Attackers with the most consecutive games. England is currently fourth in Eagles history behind Stan Walters (126). Jerry Sisemore (127) and Jon Runyan (144).

This is Lane Johnson’s second AP First Team All-Pro pick (first pick was in 2017) and he’s been elected to the NFL Pro Bowl three times (2017, 2018, 2019). The fourth overall selection in the 2013 NFL Draft started 112 games in Eagles blue, and at 31, he still has plenty of football to play at a high level in the league.
