SiriusXM NFL Radio host Jim Miller, one of three Associated Press voters who selected Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson as their first-team All-Pro quarterback, says he gave Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson his MVP vote but views the All-Pro vote a little bit differently.
For Miller, an All-Pro vote indicates the player is the best at his position in the NFL. Miller believes Wilson is the best quarterback in the league, thus Wilson got his All-Pro vote despite Miller’s opinion that Jackson was the MVP of the league in 2019.
“I don’t think voting Russell Wilson first-team All-Pro — recognizing his season — is an insult to Lamar at all,” Miller said on Glenn Clark Radio Jan. 7. “Lamar ended up being first-team All-Pro anyway despite my vote, but I saw it a different way. I respect all the other voters and how they look at it, but I look at it through a quarterback’s lens. I think Russell Wilson had to manage a lot more out there in the great Northwest than what Lamar had to manage this year, but I did recognize the great year that he had.”
