49ers Arik Armstead snubbed for Pro Bowl, Rams QB Jared Goff could pay

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff could easily wind up wishing San Francisco 49ers defensive tackle Arik Armstead was named a starter for the 2020 Pro Bowl.

The Niners are going to be well-represented, yes. But Armstead, who was the first 49ers defender to record 10 sacks this season, was merely named an alternate. Granted, the chances of an alternate getting into the Pro Bowl eventually are usually good. Yet it doesn’t change the fact Armstead was snubbed.

And he’s not happy about it.

“I’m mad,” Armstead said, via Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle.
