The Green Bay Packers will be represented on the 2025 All-Pro roster by defensive end Micah Parsons (first team) and safety Xavier McKinney (second), but that doesn’t mean none of their teammates drew votes. Seven other Packers received at least a second-team vote, ranked below in order of total voting points.
Packers earning All-Pro votes not named Parsons or McKinney
To determine the All-Pro rosters, the 50-member Associated Press panel awards three points for a first-team vote, while a second-team nomination earns one. Here are how Packers players fared in addition to Parsons (68 points, 17 first-team votes) and McKinney (31, 7).
Punter Daniel Whelan (10, 3)
Right tackle Zach Tom (7)
Wide receiver Christian Watson (1)
Linebacker Edgerrin Cooper (1)
Safety Evan Williams (1)
Cornerback Keisean Nixon (1)
Long snapper Michael Orzech (1)
Of the above nominees, only Whelan earned a first-team vote, though with the fifth-most total points he did not earn a spot on either All-Pro roster.
Watson even appearing on the list is an incredible accomplishment given that he did not take the field until Week 8 in Pittsburgh. From that point on, Watson amassed 35 catches for 611 yards and six touchdowns in 10 games. Had he not sat out Week 18, he would have all but surely set a new career-high in receiving yards. As it was, he easily averaged the most yards per game of his four-year career.
Keisean Nixon’s inclusion caused some Packers fans to raise their brows, as 2025 was an up and down year for the seven-year veteran. Nixon had far more dropped interceptions than the one he actually came down with. He made it count, at least, by picking off Caleb Williams in the end zone to seal Green Bay’s Week 14 win over the Bears. Despite his inconsistency, Nixon finished in the top third at his position by PFF grade, ranking 38th/114 with a score of 67.1.
