Led by top vote-getter Patrick Mahomes, the reigning Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs tied with the Baltimore Ravens, Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks for the best representation in this season’s new-look Pro Bowl.
Those four teams each had seven Pro Bowl selections apiece as the NFL announced AFC and NFC rosters on Monday night.
“Starting opposite Mahomes for the NFC will be the Packers’ Aaron Rodgers. Four of the quarterbacks selected to the Pro Bowl are under the age of 26: Mahomes (25), the Buffalo Bills’ Josh Allen (24), Arizona Cardinals’ Kyler Murray (23) and Houston Texans’ Deshaun Watson (25).
Due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, no game will be held this season. Instead, the 2021 Pro Bowl will play out on the EA Sports “Madden NFL 21” video game on Jan. 31. The Pro Bowl was originally scheduled to be played at Allegiant Stadium, the new home of the Las Vegas Raiders.
