Bucs' Evans, Falcons' Robinson among Pro Bowl replacements

NEW YORK -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers receiver Mike Evans got his 11th straight 1,000-yard season -- and now he's a Pro Bowler for the sixth time.

Evans was named to the Pro Bowl Games on Monday as a replacement player after spots were vacated by this year's Super Bowl participants -- the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs -- and because of injuries.

With his sixth selection, Evans ties former Buccaneers fullback Mike Alstott for the most in franchise history. He missed three full games and much of a fourth because of a hamstring injury but finished with 1,004 receiving yards thanks to a 9-yard catch late in the fourth quarter of Tampa Bay's season finale.
