The Washington Football Team has had two players voted to the 2021 NFL Pro Bowl, with both rookie DE Chase Young and RG Brandon Scherff getting the nod on Monday night.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 Pro Bowl will be entirely virtual, via Madden NFL 21.
This is the second-straight season that Scherff has been named to the Pro Bowl, with him being named in 2020 but unable to play due to an injury. It is his fourth career Pro Bowl nomination in Washington.
In Young’s first season in the NFL, he was named to the Pro Bowl as a reserve, and he is the youngest player in franchise history to make the cut, according to Washington PR.
