The 49ers, as a team, are ranked No. 2 when it comes to total votes. Only the Baltimore Ravens have earned more votes than San Francisco. A lot of that is due to the league's top vote-getter, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, who has received 146,171 votes. Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes comes in second with 116,325 while Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson rounds out the top 3 with 115,370.
Fans can vote online via the NFL's official Pro Bowl ballot site. They can also vote via Twitter by tweeting the first and last name of the player or their official Twitter handle plus the hashtag #ProBowlVote.

The Pro Bowl will be played on January 26, 2020, at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida.
