A selection remains an honor when a player withdraws. The participation notes identify documented exceptions; an unmarked selection is not a claim that participation has been independently verified. From the 2023 event onward, participation can include Pro Bowl Games skills events as well as flag football.
The franchise standard
Six legends. Six or more selections.
These totals belong to their Tampa Bay careers. Derrick Brooks leads the way, followed by Warren Sapp and a four-player group with six selections apiece. [9]

When the stars wore our colors
Buccaneers MVP moments
Different generations. Different formats. Four memorable occasions when a Buccaneer finished the all-star festivities with an MVP honor.
Lee Roy Selmon
Four sacks made a powerful statement. Selmon shared Player of the Game honors with Kellen Winslow, giving Tampa Bay an early place in the Pro Bowl’s MVP story.

A 59-yard interception return for a touchdown helped swing the game toward the NFC. Brooks brought his trademark playmaking to Hawaii and came away with the MVP award.

A replacement invitation became an Offensive MVP performance. Mayfield took part in precision passing and flag football, adding an all-star flourish to his first Tampa Bay season.
Read the 2024 Games reportAntoine Winfield Jr.
A late interception of Joe Burrow helped the NFC protect its comeback. Winfield’s timely play earned Defensive MVP honors at the 2026 Pro Bowl Games.

A fan’s guide to the record
Selections, seasons, and the Games
Why are there two different years?
The honor recognizes an NFL season, while the event is ordinarily staged the following calendar year. Baker Mayfield’s 2023 selection, for example, led to his appearance and Offensive MVP award at the 2024 Pro Bowl Games. [12]
Does every selection mean a player played?
No. Injuries, withdrawals, and other circumstances can prevent participation. Tom Brady’s 2021 Buccaneers selection remains part of the official record even though he did not play in the 2022 event. Jason Pierre-Paul’s 2020 selection preceded the canceled in-person 2021 game. [5], [6]
Which honors belong in this archive?
Only selections earned as a Tampa Bay Buccaneer. Original selections and players officially added as replacements count. An alternate designation alone does not. Honors earned for another franchise are outside these Tampa Bay totals.
About these records
Reviewed November 7, 2026. Selection totals were compiled from the official 2026 Buccaneers Media Guide, with historical participation notes checked against the 2020 guide and team event reports. Counts are derived from Tampa Bay’s player-season entries, rather than whole-career totals that can include other clubs. Coverage ends with the 2025 NFL season and the 2026 Pro Bowl Games; no future 2026-season selections are included.
This is a selection honor roll with documented participation notes, not a complete game-by-game participation ledger. The official selection tables do not consistently retain withdrawal markers; the notes therefore identify known exceptions without assuming that every unmarked selection was played.
