Wilson throws 3 TDs in 49-27 Pro Bowl win

HONOLULU — Russell Wilson threw three first-half touchdown passes to lead Team Irvin to a 49-27 victory over Team Rice in the Pro Bowl on Sunday.

The Seattle Seahawks star, who was the first player picked in the all-star game’s draft, led scoring drives on three of Team Irvin’s first four possessions at Aloha Stadium. He threw touchdown passes of 14 and 2 yards to Atlanta Falcons teammates Julio Jones and Devonta Freeman in the opening quarter.

Early in the second quarter, Wilson connected with Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley for a 10-yard score.
