AP All-Pro Team: Donald lone unanimous pick, Chiefs' offense lands 4
The Associated Press released its 2018 All-Pro honorees on Friday.
Los Angeles Rams star defensive tackle Aaron Donald was the only unanimous selection, while Patrick Mahomes took a big step toward claiming the MVP award by easily beating out fellow quarterback Drew Brees with 45 votes to five, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
Joining Mahomes on the first-team offense are three other members of the Kansas City Chiefs: tight end Travis Kelce, right tackle Mitchell Schwartz, and flex Tyreek Hill.
Elsewhere, Indianapolis Colts standouts Darius Leonard and Quenton Nelson became the first rookie teammates to be named AP All-Pros since 1965.
