Chicago Bears coach John Fox famously said he prefers Super Bowlers to Pro Bowlers.
Well, he has neither.
The Bears (3-11), who routinely sent four to six players to the Pro Bowl most seasons under Lovie Smith, were shut out of the 2016 Pro Bowl, at least until all the replacements are announced.
Even during Year 1 of the short-lived Marc Trestman era, the Bears had five players (Matt Forte, Alshon Jeffery, Tim Jennings, Kyle Long and Brandon Marshall) selected to participate in the NFL’s annual all-star game.
