The Los Angeles Rams are sending four players to the 2026 Pro Bowl Games – provided they aren’t playing in the Super Bowl later that week.
The NFL announced the full rosters on Tuesday and four Rams were selected: Matthew Stafford, Puka Nacua, Byron Young and Jared Verse. Los Angeles had seven players in the top 10 of their respective positions during the final fan voting results but only four were officially selected after accounting for player and coach votes.

Stafford was an obvious selection considering he leads the MVP race and is first in the NFL in passing yards, touchdowns and passer rating. Officially, it’s Stafford’s third Pro Bowl selection but he was also picked in 2021 as an injury replacement when the Rams made the Super Bowl, so he didn’t participate. The other NFC quarterbacks are Sam Darnold and Dak Prescott.
Nacua ranks second in the league in receiving despite missing time with injuries, picking up right where he left off in his first two years. This is his second Pro Bowl selection after also making it as a rookie in 2023. He’s joined by George Pickens, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Amon-Ra St. Brown at wide receiver on the NFC roster.
Verse was a Pro Bowler as a rookie last year, the only Rams player to be chosen in 2024. He has 6.5 sacks and 24 quarterback hits, ranking sixth in the NFL with 72 total pressures.
Young earns his first Pro Bowl honor thanks to his breakout season, ranking 14th in total pressures and ninth with a career-best 11 sacks.

The only other outside linebacker to make it in the NFC was Brian Burns.
The 2026 Pro Bowl Games will take place the week of the Super Bowl on Feb. 3, the first time ever it’s being held during Super Bowl week. It features a flag football game between the AFC and NFC, which are coached by Steve Young and Jerry Rice, respectively.
