The Associated Press announced its All-Pro team on Friday afternoon, and with it, gave a strong early hint at which player will win the league MVP award between frontrunners Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen.

Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen both seek their first trip to the Super Bowl — and stand in each other’s ways to get there.

Jackson became the first quarterback in NFL history with at least 4,000 passing yards and 800 rushing yards in a single season.

MVP candidates Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson were both dialed in this season, leading their teams to regular-season glory behind elite production under center. However, the Associated Press selected the Baltimore Ravens quarterback as its 2024 First-Team All-Pro at the position.

The Ravens quarterback certainly has the respect of his peers: he was the NFLPA All-Pro team's quarterback in 2023 as well (that year ended with Jackson winning his second MVP award). Jackson and Baltimore open their playoff campaign on Saturday at home against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry opened up about Josh Allen's MVP case against his backfield mate, quarterback Lamar Jackson.

Lamar Jackson and Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen are two NFL stars competing for the season MVP award, so in that context they were compared by a key Baltimore Ravens weapon.
