Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson and long snapper Andrew DePaola earned first-team All-Pro honors for the second time in three seasons with Jefferson joining former LSU teammate and Bengals receiver Ja'Marr Chase as the only unanimous first-team selections by the 50 members who voted for the 2024 Associated Press All-Pro NFL teams.

"Wow, that's crazy," Jefferson told the Associated Press. "That's respect right there. That's love."

Also earning some love was Vikings edge rusher Andrew Van Ginkel, who earned second-team All-Pro honors with 18 points and two first-team votes. An All-Pro for the first time in his first year as a Viking, Van Ginkel had 11½ sacks and 18 tackles for loss and returned two interceptions for touchdowns.

Jefferson, the unanimous NFL Offensive Player of the Year in 2022, heads into Monday night's playoff game against the Rams with 103 receptions for 1,533 yards and 10 touchdowns. Chase won receiving's triple crown with 127 catches for 1,708 yards and 17 touchdowns.

Even Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (48 first-team votes) fell short of all 50 votes. Denver cornerback Patrick Surtain II got 49 first-place votes.

Voters, including this reporter, were asked to select first and second teams. First-team votes were worth three points, second-team votes one point. The votes were cast Monday and released Friday.

Ten Vikings received at least one vote. The other seven were:

  • Fullback C.J. Ham finished fourth with five points and one first-team vote.
  • Right tackle Brian O'Neill finished fourth with two points. Only four right tackles received votes.
  • Cornerback Byron Murphy Jr. finished sixth with 20 points and three first-team votes.
  • Edge rusher Jonathan Greenard finished seventh with 13 points and one first-team vote.
  • Linebacker Blake Cashman finished ninth with 18 points and one first-team vote.
  • Safety Cam Bynum finished ninth with two points.
  • Special teamer Trent Sherfield Sr. finished 14th with one point.

The Ravens and Lions had four first-team selections apiece. Baltimore quarterback Lamar Jackson, with 30 first-team votes, beat out Buffalo's Josh Allen, who had 18 first-team votes. Jackson earned first-team All-Pro for the third time. Only Peyton Manning (seven) and Aaron Rodgers (four) have had more in the Super Bowl era.

Making first team for the Lions were right tackle Penei Sewell, receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, safety Kerby Joseph and punter Jack Fox.
