The NFL just released it's 2026 Pro Bowl rosters today, with former Texas RB Bijan Robinson and K Cameron Dicker making the list.

Robinson, officially in his third season as a pro, has accumulated 1,250 rushing yards and 6 touchdowns on the ground this year while averaging 5.0 yards per carry. He's also caught 71 passes for 771 receiving yards to go along with 3 receiving touchdowns.

He's been an absolute monster since the moment that he stepped onto the field the Falcons in 2023, ranking near the top in every major running back metric since his rookie season. What sets him apart from other players at the position is his receiving ability out of the backfield. Not many running backs are capable of handling the type of overall volume that he can on the ground, on top of leading the league in receptions by a back as well.

His future as a pro is incredibly bright, and he makes it look easier and easier every year.

Cameron Dicker is in his fourth season, and is one of the most accurate kickers in the league right now. His career average make percentage of 94.1% is currently tops in the league, and is on track to be an all-time NFL record if he can continue on at this pace.

His 2025 FG percentage is at 94.7% right now, converting on 36/38 field goals. He's also 33/33 on extra point attempts this season. Dicker handles kickoffs for the Chargers as well, averaging 61 yards per KO attempt with 14 touchbacks.

Both of these former Longhorns are incredibly deserving of being on this season's Pro Bowl teams, and both are on pace for Hall of Fame-type careers.
