Tyrann Mathieu among 4 Saints players who received All-Pro votes for 2022

Veteran safety Tyrann Mathieu is among several New Orleans Saints players who received votes for the Associated Press 2022 All-Pro teams, along with linebacker Demario Davis and a couple of special teamers. Davis was the only player out of the group to be selected for the annual All-Pro list (he made the second team for the third year in a row), but three of his teammates also received ballots in their favor.

It’s a bit of a step down from past years when the All-Pro teams were littered with standout Saints players, but it’s still good to see some of them receive this recognition. We’ll take the silver linings we can get after such a difficult 2022 season. This year, first team votes were valued at 3 points and second team votes were set at 1 point, leading to cumulative totals from the AP’s 50 ballots. Here are the four Saints players who received All-Pro votes:
