It’s been a good two months for Washington Commanders safety Jeremy Reaves.
Not only did Reaves earn his first trip to the Pro Bowl for his outstanding work on special teams, but he was also named AP first-team All-Pro and the NFLPA’s player’s All-Pro team.
On Monday, Reaves added another as the Pro Football Writers of America named Reaves to its All-NFL team as the special-team player. In addition, Reaves made the All-NFC team.
Joining Reaves on the PFWA All-NFC team is defensive tackle Daron Payne.
The 2018 first-round pick from Alabama enjoyed a breakout season in 2022, just as he is set to become an unrestricted free agent in March. Payne tied the legendary Dave Butz for the franchise single-season record for sacks by an interior defensive lineman.
Payne also established new career highs in tackles [64] and tackles for loss [18]. Payne was fourth in the NFL in TFLs.
Congratulations to Reaves and Payne on the well-deserved honors.
Congrats to the players selected to the @PFWAwriters All NFL team for 2022, and thank you to the NFL writers who took the time to vote on these awards.
Our individual award winners (MVP, Coach of the Year etc) will be announced later this week. pic.twitter.com/vLyZuF0IfB
