THE U.S. National Football League (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.

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.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson are named as Jackson’s backups.

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.

Pro Bowl rosters are determined by a combined vote of fans, players and coaches. The final roster for the Jan. 26 All-Star game will look substantially different with injured players and players competing in the Super Bowl the following week opting out. (SD-Agencies)
