JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Two Jaguars were recognized among the NFL’s best, as linebacker Devin Lloyd and long snapper Ross Matiscik were named All-Pros by the Associated Press.
Matiscik earned first-team honors, while Lloyd was selected to the second team. The selection marks the first All-Pro nod of Lloyd’s career and the third consecutive for Matiscik, who was named to the first team for the second time (also in 2023).

Matiscik continued to establish himself as one of the league’s top specialists. He played 140 special teams snaps during the 2025 season and recorded four tackles, tied for third-most among NFL long snappers. Since entering the league in 2020, his 22 special teams tackles are tied for the most at his position.
He snapped for punter Logan Cooke, who posted a 43.0-yard net punting average - fourth best in the AFC - and for kicker Cam Little, who scored a franchise-record 140 points, the fifth-highest total in the NFL this season. In addition to his three All-Pro selections, Matiscik has been named to the Pro Bowl Games in each of the last three seasons.
Lloyd started 15 games and totaling 74 tackles, 10 quarterback hits, seven passes defensed, six tackles for loss, five interceptions - including one returned for a touchdown - 1.5 sacks and a fumble recovery. He also added seven special teams tackles.
His five interceptions tied for second-most in the NFL, while his six total takeaways ranked third. Lloyd became just the second player in the last 20 seasons to record at least 10 quarterback hits and five interceptions in a single season, joining linebacker Lavonte David (2013).
Lloyd delivered one of the most dominant individual performances of the season in Week 12 at Arizona, when he recorded five quarterback hits - tied for the most by a linebacker in a game this year and the most by a Jaguar since Calais Campbell in 2019.
He also made franchise history in Week 5 against Kansas City on Monday Night Football, returning an interception 99 yards for a touchdown. The play marked the longest in Jaguars history and the longest regular-season return by a linebacker since 1941.
Lloyd’s season included AFC Defensive Player of the Week honors following Week 4 and AFC Defensive Player of the Month honors for September, further underscoring a breakout year that culminated with his first All-Pro selection.
