What happened: The 10-player projection includes Colston Loveland among candidates seeking their first All-Pro selection. It is his third appearance in PFF's candidate coverage since June.

Why it matters: The repeated inclusion reflects sustained expectations entering the 2026 season. All-Pro voting will ultimately depend on his production once the schedule begins.

By the numbers: PFF featured Loveland in first-time All-Pro candidate lists on June 4, July 11 and July 28. Its July 25 positional ranking placed him No. 5 among NFL tight ends.

What to watch: Training-camp usage will offer the next indication of his role before Week 1.
