No Pro Bowl selections for Eagles

The Eagles had no one selected to the NFC Pro Bowl squad Wednesday marking the first time in the 14-year Andy Reid era they’ve been shutout.

The last time the Eagles didn’t have a player selected to the Pro Bowl was 1999. Actually it was the 1998 season, Ray Rhodes’ last with the organization.

Kicker Alex Henery and guard Evan Mathis probably were  the most deserving Eagles. Mathis is a third alternate. The complete Pro Bowl rosters are here.

If anyone has a reason to feel jobbed it's Cardinals middle linebacker Daryl Washington. In addition to 9 sacks, Washington is one of the top all around defensive players in the league. The Cardinals are 5-10. The Pro Bowl middle linebackers were Patrick Willis and NaVorro Bowman of the Niners, who are 10-4-1.
