The Reese’s Senior Bowl has taken place annually in Mobile, Alabama since 1948. The longest continual-running all-star game has produced 100 draft picks each of the last four years.
It is widely regarded as the top all-star game each year, and the 2024 season will commemorate the 75th Reese’s Senior Bowl with a highly regarded 75th Anniversary team.
The theme for the 75th Anniversary will be “The Legends Return,” which is evidenced in the selection of players named to the team.
Included in the roster are Hall of Famers, former NFL players who have won MVP awards, former players who were First- and Second-Team All-Pro selections, and various Player of the Year selections.
Congratulations to the official Senior Bowl 75th Anniversary Team, in partnership with the @NFLPA.
The lineup includes:
19 Pro Football Hall of Famers
8 NFL MVP awards

Retired New York Giants defensive end Michael Strahan is on this list, which is unsurprising to anyone who follows the Giants.
Strahan’s illustrious career spanned 15 years and earned him a slew of accolades. Super Bowl Champion. Four-time First-Team All-Pro. Two-time Second-Team All-Pro. Defensive Player of the Year. Seven-time Pro Bowler. And that’s just a few.
During his tenure in New York, Strahan racked up 854 tackles, 141.5 sacks, four interceptions, and 24 forced fumbles. He is currently tied with T.J. Watt for most sacks in a single season with 22.5, and he led the league in sacks for two seasons while active.
The 75th Anniversary Reese’s Senior Bowl Team will commemorate these players at halftime on February 24, 2024.
