Deion Jones named to first Pro Bowl, Julio Jones bows out

Deion Jones just put together his second consecutive dominant season, and he’s earned his place in the Pro Bowl as a result. An alternate when the Pro Bowl rosters were first announced, Debo will be heading to...where’s the Pro Bowl now? Orlando! Orlando.

It’s a well-deserved honor for Jones, who has turned himself into one of the league’s premier linebackers in short order. His coverage skills are phenomenal, he’s one of the NFL’s better playmakers at his position, and he absolutely has Drew Brees’ number. If he keeps up his current pace, Jones will be one of the Falcons’ best linebackers ever, and in relatively short order.
