On Monday evening, the NFL announced the AFC and NFC rosters for the 2020-2021 Pro Bowl.
As expected, Chicago Bears stars such as outside linebacker Khalil Mack and kick returner Cordarrelle Patterson were named to the NFC roster, but others were surprising snubs such as cornerback Kyle Fuller, linebacker Roquan Smith, wide receiver Allen Robinson and even kicker Cairo Santos.
When the Pro Bowl news broke, many Bears and NFL fans took to Twitter and shared their thoughts on the selections and omissions from this year’s team:
The Allen Robinson disrespect is getting out of control

Roquan definitely deserves to be on this list

Roquan Smith is arguably the worst Pro Bowl snub of the century! 128 total tackles, 17 tackles for loss, and four sacks. Complete and utter disrespect for one of the league’s most dominant linebackers. #DaBears https://t.co/EsXQOXJes7

How @The_Dream99 is not a pro bowler is mind boggling. Since day 1 he has helped change the culture with that group and is a freaking force. Some folks not watching the tape. @RoquanSmith1 and @AllenRobinson both deserving but Hicks is the one. @KyleBrandt we need you and @gmfb https://t.co/DJIEyFF9l7

Where is Roquan Smith? Plays on an elite level all year and is somehow STILL underrated?! Snubbed. https://t.co/h0eZN3sVyZ

Roquan Smith not being voted in the Pro Bowl is a criminal offense.

Why are people always sleeping on Allen Robinson? 🤦🏾♂️ #Bears

Roquan Smith is currently the 2nd ranked defender in the NFL according to Pro Football Reference.
He is also 4th in total tackles.
2nd in solo tackles.
2nd in TFL.
Yet, he didn’t make the Pro Bowl. Joke.

No Roquan Smith is hilarious 😂
The man has been the best player on the field for some games this year. https://t.co/lKIjSujMXq

Roquan Smith was robbed.
Could say Kyle Fuller and Allen Robinson were as well. https://t.co/BXF4rVf3Cm

Khalil Mack and Cordarrelle Patterson are heading to the Pro Bowl, but Roquan Smith is a huge snub. Deserves to be there. https://t.co/sdnWJJ8uuo
