Trey McBride should have been unanimous first-team All-Pro, too

Story byMike FlorioSat, January 10, 2026 at 2:47 PM UTC·1 min readThe 2025 NFL All-Pro team has three unanimous first-teamers: Myles Garrett, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and Puka Nacua. There should have been a fourth. Cardinals tight end Trey McBride, who set the single-season record for receptions for a tight end, got 49 of the 50 first-team votes. The other went to 49ers tight end George Kittle. AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementNow, Kittle is a great player.

Key Highlights

  • He's a two-time first-team All-Pro, and a three-time second-team All-Pro.
  • But he wasn't even the second-team All-Pro this year, finishing behind Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts. And for good reason.
  • Kittle missed six games due to injury. Kittle finished the year with 57 catches for 628 yards and seven touchdowns.
  • McBride had 126 catches for 1,239 yards and 11 touchdowns. Sure, Kittle is a great blocker and a phenomenal leader, in many ways the heart and soul of the San Francisco offense.
  • But it's borderline lunacy to make him the first-team All-Pro over a tight end who had a historic season, more than doubling Kittle's receptions and nearly doubling his yardage.
