San Francisco quarterback Steve Young and Green Bay wide receiver Sterling Sharpe were the leading vote-getters for the Associated Press All-Pro team.

Young, in his first season as the unchallenged regular quarterback for the 49ers, received 78 of 80 votes cast by a national media panel. Sharpe, who broke Art Monk’s NFL mark with 108 receptions, got 76 votes.

The leading vote-getter on defense was Seattle tackle Cortez Kennedy, named on 71 ballots.

Fourteen players from the NFC and 12 from the AFC made the team. Only guard Steve Wisniewski of the Raiders repeated from the 1991 offensive team. Defensive repeaters were New Orleans linebacker Pat Swilling, Philadelphia end Clyde Simmons and Denver safety Steve Atwater.
