The 2020 Pro Bowl rosters were announced late Tuesday evening and two former Wisconsin Badgers, quarterback Russell Wilson and center Travis Frederick, were selected.
For Wilson, it is his seventh Pro Bowl appearance in the last eight years, and the nod may be coming in his strongest NFL season to date. The MVP candidate has completed 300 passes for 3,708 yards with an excellent 28-to-five touchdown-to-interception ratio.
The mega contract extension he signed with the Seahawks this offseason has more than paid off thus far, and he’ll look to get Seattle a first round bye in the team’s final two regular season games.
Frederick is making his fifth appearance in the Pro Bowl, an incredible accomplishment in his own right but even more impressive considering he’s coming off Guillain-Barre Syndrome.
He has picked up right where he left off in 2019 however, and will once again make the Pro Bowl roster alongside teammates Zack Martin and Tyron Smith.
The 2020 Pro Bowl will be played on Sunday, Jan. 26, 2020 and televised live on ESPN at noon PT from Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Fla.
