The Associated Press 1st team All-Pro teams were released today and for the first time since the conclusion of the 2006 season a Jacksonville Jaguar made the team. Maurice Jones-Drew, the NFL's leading rusher for the 2011 season, earned the honor, making him just the fifth member of the Jaguars to do so.

The other 1st team All-Pro running back behind Jones-Drew was LeSean McCoy of the Philadelphia Eagles who finished fourth in the league in rushing, but had a league-leading 17 rushing touchdowns. No other Jaguars made the team.
