The AFC and NFC All-Star squads are based on the consensus votes of fans, players and coaches. Each group’s vote counts one-third toward determining the 43-man rosters that represent the American Football Conference and National Football Conference in the Pro Bowl. NFL players and coaches will cast their votes on December 20-21.

The NFL is the only sports league that combines voting by fans, coaches and players to determine its all-star teams. It was the first professional sports league to offer online all-star voting in 1995.

The following is a breakdown of positions and the corresponding numbers of players who will be selected in each conference (43 per conference):

OFFENSE: WR (4), TE (2), OT (3), G (3), C (2), QB (3), RB (3), FB (1)
