New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye currently leads all NFL players in votes for the 2026 Pro Bowl Games.

He has been in the MVP discussion in a year where he has helped the Patriots climb to No. 1 in the AFC East and tie for the NFL's best overall record at 10-2. His emergence as one of the great young quarterbacks in the league has been one of the biggest keys for the Patriots, along with the signing of Mike Vrabel as head coach.
All told, the quarterback has 3,130 passing yards, 21 touchdowns, and six interceptions.
The Pro Bowl might not mean as much to fans as a standalone product, but the fact that Maye is earning so many votes is proof that most believe he's performing like the best quarterback in the league this season.
