Earlier this month, Minnesota Vikings star edge rusher Danielle Hunter was named to his fourth Pro Bowl team. Now, another postseason accolade has rolled in for the outside linebacker who had arguably the best season of his career in 2023. This honor comes from the Pro Football Writers of America, as Hunter was named to their All-NFC team.

Hunter was the catalyst for a much-improved Vikings defense this season, and set new career highs with 83 tackles and 16.5 sacks. Hunter also set not only a personal high, but a new Vikings’ team record with 23 tackles for loss. He also wrecked games in a big way with four fumbles forced on the season.
Hunter was a dynamic pass rusher all season for the Vikings, and has surely earned himself a massive deal — whether that’s with the Vikings or with a new team — when the NFL’s free agency period starts in March. Hunter is joined at outside linebacker on the All-NFC team by Cowboys stud pass rusher Micah Parsons.
