MIAMI – Former FIU standout and current Miami Dolphins' tight end Jonnu Smith has been honored with selection to the AFC roster for the 2025 NFL Pro Bowl Games, which are slated to take place in Orlando  at Camping World Stadium on Jan. 30 and Feb. 2.
 
Smith, who earned his first Pro Bowl selection, enjoyed one of the best seasons by a tight end in Miami Dolphins' history.  Seeing action in all 17 games, including six starts, he recorded 88 receptions for 884 receiving yards and eight touchdowns – which shattered single-season franchise records at the tight end position in each category.
 
Among all NFL tight ends, Smith ranked fourth in catches and receiving yards, while tying for second in touchdowns. He also set career highs in receiving yards and receptions and matched his career best for receiving touchdowns during his first season with Miami.
 
The 2025 Pro Bowl Games will open with the Skills Challenge live on ESPN from 7-8:30 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 30.
 
It continues on Sunday, Feb. 2, with cumulative scoring from Thursday's skills contests building up to the highly anticipated flag football matchup from 3-6 p.m. on ESPN and ABC.
