Steelers FB Roosevelt Nix Named To The Pro Bowl

The 2018 Pro Bowl festivities will be getting underway this week and Pittsburgh Steelers fullback Roosevelt Nix will now be taking part in them.

On Monday, Nix was named to the AFC Pro Bowl team, replacing New England Patriots fullback James Develin, who is now preparing to play in the Super Bowl.

Nix, who played 182 offensive snaps during the regular season, finished the year with three carries for zero yards, even though he scored a one-yard rushing touchdown, the first of his career. The former undrafted free agent out of Kent State also had two receptions for six yards, including the first receiving touchdown of his career.
