As a member of the Pro Football Writers of America, I get a vote on their season-ending awards. So, I take particular interest in these awards.
Today the PFWA released their All-NFL, All-AFC, and All NFC teams based on the votes of all PFWA members. A few Raiders players showed up in the results.
Making the All-NFL team was RB Josh Jacobs and K Daniel Carlson. Both also made the All-AFC teams along with WR Davante Adams and DE Maxx Crosby.
For what it’s worth, all four received All-NFL votes from me.
Here are all the full PFWA teams.
