Pro Bowl selections don’t always tell the full story of a player’s impact, but let’s be honest—it still matters some bit. It’s a status symbol. It’s a way of separating good players from great ones. And for a Baltimore Ravens roster loaded with young talent, it’s only a matter of time before more of their guys get the national recognition they deserve.
That’s why it’s no surprise that Ryan Mink of BaltimoreRavens.com dropped a list of five Ravens who could make their first Pro Bowl in 2026. The names? Odafe Oweh, Nate Wiggins, Roger Rosengarten, Daniel Faalele, and Travis Jones. All guys who had strong seasons, all guys who are trending up, and all guys who could easily find themselves in the Pro Bowl next year if they just keep doing what they're doing.
The list? Pretty spot on. But there’s one name missing that could force his way into the conversation—Isaiah Likely. If Mark Andrews were to be traded or cut to clear cap space (a possibility, even if it’s not ideal), Likely would immediately step into a TE1 role. And based on what we saw when Andrews wasn't on early in the season? That’s a Pro Bowl-caliber player waiting to happen. But we’ll get to that later—first, let’s talk about the five guys who actually made the list.
Five Ravens players who could be first-time Pro Bowlers next year
Let’s start with the most obvious name: Odafe Oweh. If you put up 10 sacks, make big plays in big games, and look like a freak athlete off the edge, you should be a Pro Bowler. The only reason Oweh didn’t get the nod this year was because of Kyle Van Noy (in his 11th year), who was a great story but isn’t Baltimore’s long-term guy. Oweh is, and if he keeps progressing, he’s a lock for next year.
Then there’s Nate Wiggins, the rookie corner who showed up and made life miserable for opposing receivers immediately. Wiggins’ ability to stick to wideouts and force incompletions was ridiculous for a first-year player. Now imagine what happens when he fills out his frame, cleans up the penalties, and starts making more plays on the ball. After all, only four starting corners had a lower passer rating allowed than Wiggins. His Pro Bowl case is already strong—next year, it could be undeniable.
Roger Rosengarten and Daniel Faalele could be Baltimore’s next great offensive linemen, and if either of them takes that next step, a Pro Bowl nod is surely in the cards. Rosengarten was thrown into the fire as a rookie and just kept getting better as the season went on. Faalele, meanwhile, is huge. At 6-foot-8 and weighing 380 pounds, he already plays like an absolute mauler, and he was a Pro Bowl alternate this past season. One more year of growth? Sky's the limit.
Finally, there’s Travis Jones, a guy whose impact doesn’t always show up on stat sheets but definitely shows up on film. If he turns those pressures and hurries into sacks? He’ll be the latest Ravens defensive lineman to literally break into the Pro Bowl scene.
While Mink was spot on with his five selections, there is one possible miss—and he plays tight end.
The Ravens aren’t cutting or trading Mark Andrews unless they have to. But if they did? Isaiah Likely would immediately enter the Pro Bowl conversation. We already saw it last year—when Andrews struggled early, Likely stepped in and looked like a legit No. 1 tight end. If he got a full season in that role, there’s no doubt he’d be putting up Pro Bowl-level numbers.
Baltimore’s roster is stacked with young talent, and this list proves it. If the Ravens want to finally get over the hump next season, these are the guys who need to make that jump. And if they do? Expect to see a lot more purple and black in the Pro Bowl next year.
