Whether or not the Pro Bowl appeals to most of the NFL-loving world, it is still fun to see which players have done enough to earn their nod to the "best of the best" game that happens every year.

Most of the time, Pro Bowl players can't even make the game as they are waiting to play one another in the Super Bowl, but there are plenty of alternates chosen to take their places. The Pro Bowl isn't necessarily the most exciting game, but the skills challenge and all the events surrounding the game make it exciting.

Here are the top five players with the most Pro Bowl votes.

Pro Bowl leaders 2021-2022

#5 - Tom Brady - 111,716 votes

Usually, Tom Brady is near the top of the list for Pro Bowl votes, but he has come in at number five this season. That's not to say Brady isn't deserving of a Pro Bowl nod.

He has played lights out this season. Brady is currently in second place with a total of 3,403 passing yards. His 30 passing touchdowns are also good for first place among quarterbacks.

Simply put, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' playoff season lives and dies based on how well Brady is playing. He is just that good.

The fact of the matter is that these Pro Bowl votes are usually fan-controlled and Brady just isn't the most popular option right now.

#4 - Myles Garrett - 113,980 votes

Myles Garrett comes in fourth in fan voting for the Pro Bowl, and he is deserving of that designation and so much more. Garrett is the glue that has been holding the Cleveland Browns together when it seems the offense just isn't clicking as well as the defense.

Garrett has continually pressured quarterbacks this season and led the league in overall sacks for the better part of half the season. Garrett currently has 14 sacks this season and could be looking to smash through the overall record of 22.5 set by Michael Strahan.

The Browns will need all the help they can get as they chase their wild-card spot in the playoffs.

Top 3 Pro Bowl players as voted by fans

Who has the top Pro Bowl fan vote?

#3 - Cooper Kupp - 120,010 votes

Cooper Kupp has been one of the most dynamic players this season, and it is no shock that he came in at the top three for fan votes in the Pro Bowl. Kupp has emerged as one of the best wide receivers in the game and has changed the offensive makeup of the Los Angeles Rams.

Kupp leads in receiving yards with 1,237 yards, tied for first with 10 receiving touchdowns, and has a commanding lead with 112.5 yards per game. Kupp has turned into a high-level talent that eclipses receivers like Davante Adams and Deebo Samuel.

Hopefully, Kupp continues to play at an elite level, which may earn him MVP votes as well.

#2 - Travis Kelce - 121,807

Travis Kelce being number two on this list is a bit of a head-scratcher. That's not to say that Kelce is terrible, as he is the best tight end in the entire NFL. Kelce always finds ways to separate himself from being considered a tight end and more of a wide receiver, because he is just that good at catching the ball.

Kelce is and always will be one of the most popular players in the entire NFL and that could be a big reason to make him second in fan Pro Bowl votes. His production has dipped a bit since Patrick Mahomes struggled early on in the season, but Kelce still commands a great deal of respect.

#1 - Jonathan Taylor - 126,381 votes

The king of this year's Pro Bowl votes is none other than running back Jonathan Taylor. There is no telling where on the list Taylor would be if Derrick Henry had not been hurt, but Taylor has emerged as one of the best running backs in the NFL.

He leads the league with 1,205 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns. Only Henry is better than Taylor, but he is still out due to an injury.

Taylor has been carrying the Indianapolis Colts on his back and he is a massive reason why the Colts could see their chances at the playoffs heavily increase. Taylor belongs at the top of the Pro Bowl voting list and could be the top MVP vote with all things considered.
