The highlight of the season for Davis came in Week 12 against the Houston Texans, when he returned a first-half kickoff 97 yards for a touchdown. As a kick returner, Davis made 31 returns for 943 yards and one touchdown in 17 games. This is the first time that Davis has been named to an All-Pro team.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">James Cook was named second-team All-Pro running back, which is also his first time being named to an All-Pro team. Cook led the NFL in rushing this season with 1,621 yards, and finished with 12 rushing touchdowns. This is the first time that a Bills running back has led the NFL in rushing since 1976, and Cook\u2019s total is the third-most rushing yards in a single season in club history. Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson was named First-Team All-Pro.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Josh Allen (QB3) and Reggie Gilliam (FB3) narrowly missed out on earning All-pro honors this season, with both receiving votes that landed them third among their respective position groups. Allen received one first-place vote on the Associated Press All-Pro ballot. Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford was named First-Team All-Pro (31 first-place votes), while New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye was named second-team All-Pro (18 first-place votes).<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Gilliam was once again bested by San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk (First-Team All-Pro) and Baltimore Ravens fullback Patrick Ricard (second-team All-Pro). Other Bills who received votes included left tackle Dion Dawkins (LT5), center Connor McGovern (C6), and cornerback Christian Benford (CB12).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A pair of Buffalo Bills have been named to the Associated Press All-Pro lists, with running backs Ray&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":666971,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2048],"tags":[215,214,53,2090,2086,7,6],"class_list":{"0":"post-666970","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-buffalo-bills","8":"tag-bills","9":"tag-buffalo","10":"tag-buffalo-bills","11":"tag-buffalo-bills-news","12":"tag-buffalobills","13":"tag-football","14":"tag-nfl"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115872651271639481","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/666970","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=666970"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/666970\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/666971"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=666970"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=666970"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=666970"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
