The Buffalo Bills had three players leading their respective positions in the latest round of voting for the Pro Bowl.

After the first round of voting, the Buffalo Bills had two players leading the way at their respective positions. Those were Stefon Diggs, at wide receiver, and Andre Roberts, as a kick return specialist.

However, in the latest round of voting, Diggs and Roberts remained at the top of their position but are now joined by safety Jordan Poyer, who is the leading vote-getter at strong safety in the AFC.

This would be Andre Roberts’ third trip to the Pro Bowl, which would be the first time for Jordan Poyer and Stefon Diggs.

The Buffalo Bills when looking at total fan votes by team currently ranks fifth in the NFL, behind the Pittsburgh Steelers, Kansas City Chiefs, Seattle Seahawks, and Green Bay Packers. This is likely a good indication that the Bills are on track to have more than just these three players at the Pro Bowl.

While there are a number of players on pace to be selected to the Pro Bowl, this year will look very different. The reason is that the Pro Bowl was canceled this year due to the pandemic but the NFL has continued the process of honoring the players who have excelled this season.

The Buffalo Bills had three players make the Pro Bowl last year but the franchise wasn’t well represented the prior years. The team had only Kyle Williams go the season before that and none in the Pro Bowl prior to that one.

This season there appears to be a good chance of five, with Josh Allen and Corey Bojorquez, joining the three players currently leading at their positions on the AFC roster. This would be the most the Bills have had since 1999.
