The NFL<\/a> announced the All-Pro Teams for the 2025 season on January 10.<\/p>\n Being named an All-Pro is no small feat, it can be a career-altering achievement leading to bonuses and possible contract extensions.<\/p>\n While many deserving players made the All-Pro teams, former NFL cornerback Richard Sherman was shocked Carolina Panthers<\/a> cornerback Jaycee Horn<\/a>\u00a0was left off the list.<\/p>\n I\u2019m not really sure how @jayceehorn_<\/a> isn\u2019t an ALL-Pro this year. That\u2019s the one for me.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m not really sure how @jayceehorn_ isn\u2019t an ALL-Pro this year. That\u2019s the one for me,\u201d Sherman wrote on X<\/a>.<\/p>\n Sherman, now an NFL analyst for Amazon Prime Video, knows a thing or two about being an elite cornerback in the NFL.<\/p>\n Selected in the 2011 NFL draft, Sherman was a five-time Pro Bowler and a five-time All-Pro, making First Team three times. Sherman led the league in interceptions and won a Super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks<\/a> in 2013.<\/p>\n Who Made the NFL All-Pro Teams?<\/p>\n Several names stood out on the All-Pro list specifically at cornerback.<\/p>\n First Team:<\/p>\n Second Team:<\/p>\n While the players on this list had great seasons, Sherman questioned the All-Pro voting process.<\/p>\n \u201cI wish I could hear the explanation of some of these ALL-Pro voters. Usually it\u2019s pretty obvious but the lack of appreciation for ball production is starting to get concerning. It\u2019s not all about stats but I would be interested to hear the logical arguments made,\u201d Sherman\u00a0wrote<\/a> on X.<\/p>\n I wish I could hear the explanation of some of these ALL-Pro voters.

The $100 million cornerback earned his second Pro Bowl nod in the 2025 season.<\/p>\n Horn recorded 5 interceptions, 8 passes defenses, and 37 total tackles during the season<\/a>. Over his career, he has recorded 10 interceptions with 108 career interception return yards.<\/p>\n \u201cBeing overlooked for the All-Pro squad will only serve to motivate Horn further next season and beyond,\u201d Dean Jones wrote in a Cat Crave article<\/a>. \u201cHe\u2019s had two straight seasons with almost no serious injury problems, and it shows. The player\u2019s talent was never in question, and now that he knows how to stay healthy, it\u2019s all systems go.\u201d<\/p>\n Horn\u2019s 5 interceptions were tied with Antonio Johnson<\/a>, Nashon Wright<\/a>, Xavier Watts<\/a>, Earnest Jones IV and Devin Lloyd<\/a>. Kevin Byard III<\/a> led the league with 7.<\/p>\n He also held opponents to a completion percentage under 50 when they threw at him.<\/p>\n Horn\u2019s 2025 success reflected what kind of season the Carolina Panthers had. Although they finished with a losing record at 8-9 in the regular season, the team saw great strides on both sides of the ball.<\/p>\n Bryce Young<\/a> took a step forward as a quarterback with over 3000 passing yards. Tetairoa McMillan<\/a> caught 70 passes and was the first rookie in Panthers history to record over 1000 receiving yards.<\/p>\n The Panthers finished 16th in total defense and 15 in pass defense improving from the 2024 season where they were ranked dead last in total defense.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \n\t\t\tDeonTay Smith<\/a> is a journalist who covers the NFL for Heavy.com with a focus on the Cincinnati Bengals, Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers, and the Baltimore Ravens.
