Voting for the 2021 NFL Pro Bowl is underway, and there are several former Penn State Football players who have a legitimate chance of making the league’s annual All-Star game.

The 2020 Penn State Football season has been among the most disappointing in program history, but several former Nittany Lions are having Pro Bowl worthy campaigns in the NFL.

Voting for the 2021 NFL Pro Bowl is underway, and there are several players who have legitimate chances of representing their teams in Las Vegas.

Here is how we rank the five players most likely to be Pro Bowlers’ chances:

5. Robbie Gould – K, San Francisco 49ers

13-of-14 made Field Goal attempts, 92.9 FG percentage

A first-team All-Pro selection in 2006, Gould is having his strongest statistical season since he made the Pro Bowl that season.

Gould has scored 64 points for the San Francisco 49ers this season.

If the 49ers are able to make a late surge towards an NFC West Division championship, Gould figures to play a key role and could bolster his Pro Bowl resume.
