The 2017 All-Pro teams were named by the Associated Press (AP), Pro Football Writers of America (PFWA), and Sporting News (SN) for performance in the 2017 NFL season. While none of the All-Pro teams have the official imprimatur of the NFL (whose official recognition is nomination to the 2018 Pro Bowl), they are included in the NFL Record and Fact Book and also part of the language of the 2011 NFLPA Collective Bargaining Agreement. Any player selected to the first-team of any of the teams can be described as an "All-Pro." The AP team, with first-team and second-team selections, was chosen by a national panel of fifty NFL writers and broadcasters. The Sporting News All-NFL team is voted on by NFL players and executives and will be released at a later date. The PFWA team is selected by its more than 300 national members who are accredited media members covering the NFL.

## Key

[edit]

* AP = Associated Press first-team All-Pro[1]
* AP-2 = Associated Press second-team All-Pro[1]
* AP-2t = Tied for second-team All-Pro in the AP vote
* PFWA = Pro Football Writers Association All-NFL[2]

## Position differences

[edit]

PFWA did not separate the tackles and guards into more specific positions as the AP did.
