Jim Otto was the first player in NFL history to reach 12 selections during his dominant career with the Las Vegas Raiders. He is currently in the Pro Football Hall of Fame and was also selected as an All-Pro 10 times as an offensive lineman, doing so in 10 of his first 11 seasons.

He is joined by a star-studded list of six other players with the same amount, such as Baltimore Ravens legend Ray Lewis, arguably the best linebacker in NFL history and Champ Bailey, one of the best cornerbcaks of all-time. The most recent addition to this list of 12 selections is another legendary linebacker in Junior Seau.

3 players with 13 Pro Bowl selections

Reggie White set an all-time record with 198 career sacks, but is currently in second-place in NFL history behind Bruce Smith, who has 200 career sacks. Hall of Famer Jerry Rice and future Hall of Famer Drew Brees later joined him on the list with 13 selections of their own.

Merlin Olsen was the first player in NFL history to surpass Jim Otto for the most selections ever. He beat the record just one year after Otto set it and then added two more to pad his lead. NFL legends Peyton Manning, Tony Gonzalez and Bruce Matthews, all ranked among the best all-time in their positions, all tied Olsen's record during their careers.
