New York Giants RB Saquon Barkley, P Riley Dixon named as Pro Bowl alternates

On Tuesday, the NFL revealed it’s Pro Bowl rosters for both conferences. Unfortunately, for the first time since the 1995 season, the New York Giants don’t have any players representing the NFC. They’re just one of two teams who have zero Pro Bowlers this year. The other is the Miami Dolphins, the ballclub they just defeated on Sunday.

Although, two Giants have indeed been named alternates to the Pro Bowl. This means they’ll be able to participate if the respective individuals in front of them can’t play due to injury or because they made the Super Bowl.
