Raiders lead NFL with most players selected to 2017 Pro Bowl with seven

Having already clinched a spot in the AFC playoffs this postseason, the Oakland Raiders on Tuesday evening placed an NFL-best seven players on the AFC roster for 2017 Pro Bowl to be played Jan. 29, 2017, at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Fla.

Five of the Raiders are offensive players, including quarterback Derek Carr, wide receiver Amari Cooper, center Rodney Hudson, utility tackle/guard Kelechi Osemele and tackle Donald Penn.

On defense, end Khalil Mack and safety Reggie Nelson were selected to play in the all-star event.

It’s the most Raiders named to the Pro Bowl since eight players from 1991 Los Angeles Raiders.
