That comes as no surprise after they were each selected as AP first-team All-Pros, the first time in their respective careers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Byron Young was also voted All-NFC by the PFWA, his first selection in Year 3 as a pro. All three players were deserving of league-wide recognition, and both Stafford and Nacua are contenders for year-end awards from the Associated Press; Stafford for MVP and Nacua for Offensive Player of the Year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Stafford has a good chance to win AP NFL MVP after being picked as the first-team All-Pro quarterback over Drake Maye. Nacua and Jaxon Smith-Njigba were both voted unanimous first-team All-Pros at wide receiver and are the top two favorites for Offensive Player of the Year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Stafford led the NFL in touchdown passes and yards, while Nacua was No. 1 in receptions and receiving yards per game.<\/p>\n<p>Expert NFL picks: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":body nav (nfl)|e|auto spike click:5|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_sp_a\" href=\"https:\/\/sportsdata.usatoday.com\/football\/nfl\/picks\">Exclusive betting insights only at USA TODAY.<\/a><img class=\"gnt_em_cp_cw_i\" data-g-r=\"lazy\" data-gl-src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/1768864032_86_86373428007-square-1.jpg\" data-gl- decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jan. 19, 2026, 2:06 p.m. PT The official AP awards are still to be announced at the NFL&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":689787,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2079],"tags":[95878,7,1014,58,2444,2611,6,424,95922,95923,95882,96335,95946,96127,96812,95924,95927,100678,95896,95888,95895,95906,96813,95883,95881],"class_list":{"0":"post-689786","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles-rams","8":"tag-accessfree","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-los-angeles","11":"tag-los-angeles-rams","12":"tag-losangeles","13":"tag-losangelesrams","14":"tag-nfl","15":"tag-rams","16":"tag-sstssportsnflrams","17":"tag-sstsnrams","18":"tag-tagamerican-football","19":"tag-tagbyron-young","20":"tag-tagcalifornia-gold-rush","21":"tag-tagdrake-maye","22":"tag-tagjaxon-smith-njigba","23":"tag-taglos-angeles-rams","24":"tag-tagmatthew-stafford","25":"tag-tagmerit-prizes-contests","26":"tag-tagnational-sports","27":"tag-tagnfl","28":"tag-tagnfl-hub","29":"tag-tagoverall-positive","30":"tag-tagpuka-nacua","31":"tag-tagsports-news","32":"tag-typestory"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115924280743905546","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/689786","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=689786"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/689786\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/689787"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=689786"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=689786"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=689786"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
