The NFL Pro Bowl rosters arrived on Wednesday, setting the stage for the recently pared down event scheduled to take place in Orlando before the Super Bowl.
The rosters also reinforced what was quite apparent this season: the New England Patriots are far removed from their Tom Brady glory years. Not a single member of the Patriots were named to the AFC roster, which hadn't happened since 2000 according to ESPN's Mike Reiss.
The Green Bay Packers, Carolina Panthers and Washington Commanders were also shut out, though all of those teams could still have players make the game as replacements.
