If the fans are to have any say, Washington Commanders punter Tress Way will earn his second Pro Bowl in February.
Washington’s longest-tenured player leads all NFL punters in fan voting as of Monday. Fan voting closes on Tuesday, Dec. 15, and Pro Bowl rosters will be announced next week on Dec. 21.
Fan voting is 1/3 of the process, as coaches and players make up the rest of the vote.
Way is undoubtedly deserving of the award. He averages 47 yards per punt, with a net of 43.6. Way has landed 30 punts inside the 20-yard, which is No. 1 in the NFL. Opponents are averaging only six yards per return against Way, which is No. 4 in the NFL.
Way is a weapon for Washington’s outstanding defense. When the offense struggles, Way is often asked to punt the Commanders out of trouble, which he usually does.
Unfortunately, defensive tackles Jonathan Allen and Daron Payne remain No. 4 and No. 7 in Pro Bowl voting. Both players deserve the Pro Bowl nomination. In addition, wide receiver Terry McLaurin is No. 8, while long snapper Camaron Cheeseman ranks No. 4.
Way’s lone Pro Bowl came in 2019 when he was also named second-team All-Pro.
Fans have one last day to help Washington’s players earn a trip to the Pro Bowl.
