An impressive NFL regular season turned in by former USC wide receivers was capped off by Amon-Ra St. Brown earning First-Team All-Pro honors on Friday.

St. Brown led the Lions and finished third in the NFL with 1,515 yards and tied for second with 119 catches and tied for fourth with 10 touchdowns this season. The receptions were a career-high for St. Brown, who entered the league as a fourth-round selection in the 2021 NFL Draft. He now has back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons and has caught at least 90 passes in each of his first three seasons.

He was named First-Team All-Pro despite not being voted to the Pro Bowl, though he was recently voted in as an alternate. St. Brown joins CeeDee Lamb and Tyreek Hill as First-Team selections.

This is the first First-Team All-Pro selection of St. Brown’s professional career.

He’s the only former Trojan on the first team, but Dallas Cowboys offensive lineman Tyron Smith was named Second-Team All-Pro at left tackle. It’s the third time in his outstanding NFL career that Smith has been named Second-Team All-Pro. He’s also a two-time First-Team selection.

Former Trojans had strong performances at wide receiver this season. St. Brown’s season tops the list, but others impressed as well.

Michael Pittman finished No. 5 in the league with 109 receptions and No. 14 with 1,152 receiving yards. It’s the first time Pittman crossed the 100-catch mark in his career (he finished last season with 99). And it’s his second 1,000-yard season.

Jordan Addison tied for No. 4 among wide receivers with 10 receiving touchdowns this season. He caught 70 passes for 911 yards in an impressive rookie season.

Drake London caught 69 passes for 905 yards and two touchdowns.
