The Kansas City Chiefs are sending five players to the 2015 NFL Pro Bowl. Somehow, Derrick Johnson and Sean Smith are not among them.
The five being named are outside linebackers Tamba Hali and Justin Houston, tight end Travis Kelce, safety Eric Berry and cornerback Marcus Peters.
The best part of this is Berry. The 26-year-old is coming back from Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, a cancer diagnosis that many people felt would keep him out of the National Football League for at least a year, if he survived. Berry not only came back but earned his fourth Pro Bowl selection, something that was anything but a nice token.
