Tom Brady, QB, 12th Pro Bowl: With his eighth consecutive selection, Brady tied Pro Football Hall of Famer John Hannah for the most consecutive Pro Bowl selections in New England Patriots history. He's 249-of-372 for 3,064 yards, with 22 touchdowns and just two interceptions. Oh, he did all that while missing the first four games as part of the NFL's Deflategate penalties.
Dont'a Hightower, LB, first Pro Bowl: A first-year captain, he leads the defensive huddle, the all-important communication runs through him, and he is one of the game's hardest hitting players at the position.
