Pro Bowl 2016 Rosters: Who Got Picked On Team Irvin, Team Rice?
With the first pick in the 2016 NFL Pro Bowl Draft, Team Michael Irvin selected Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson and Team Jerry Rice quickly countered by taking New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning in Wednesday night’s selection process for Sunday’s all-star game.
Wilson, who became the first player taken No. 1 overall not named Andrew Luck, stood out as one of the only quarterbacks to be picked for the Pro Bowl by both fans, players, and coaches and actually participate in the game.
Of the five total Seahawks to participate in this year’s draft and game, Wilson will be joined on Team Irvin by defensive end Michael Bennett and cornerback Richard Sherman.
Making his third Pro Bowl appearance since 2012, Wilson will also have a who’s who of the NFL’s best receiving talent like the Falcons' Julio Jones, the Bengals' A.J. Green, the Texans' DeAndre Hopkins, and the Jaguars' Allen Robinson, all of whom finished in the top 10 in receiving yards this season.
Four-time Pro Bowler Manning will have his favorite target and receiver in Odell Beckham Jr., who will also serve as a team captain beside Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald. Manning will also have an incredible backfield of the Vikings' Adrian Peterson, the Buccaneers' Doug Martin, and the Jets' Chris Ivory.
The full rosters for each squad can be found below, and the game kicks off Sunday night at 7 p.m. from Aloha Stadium in Honolulu, Hawaii.
