Lamar Jackson 1 of record-tying 12 Ravens named to Pro Bowl rosters announced on Tuesday

The NFL announced the rosters for the Pro Bowl on Tuesday.

To nobody’s surprise, the year of Lamar Jackson continued as the breakout Baltimore Ravens quarterback was named as the starting signal-caller for the AFC.

Record representation from Ravens

Jackson is one of 12 players for the AFC-leading Ravens named to the Pro Bowl, the highest tally by any team in the league. The 12-man representation ties the mark for most Pro Bowl players on an initial Pro Bowl roster held by the 2007 Dallas Cowboys and 1973 Miami Dolphins.

The New Orleans Saints led the NFC with seven selections, including quarterback Drew Brees, who was named as a backup to Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson. Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was also named as an NFC Pro Bowler.

Meanwhile, each of the Bosa brothers made the cut, with Los Angeles Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa and San Francisco 49ers rookie sensation Nick Bosa being honored as Pro Bowlers.
