Bengals' Joe Burrow gets last-second Pro Bowl nod

The Cincinnati Bengals suddenly have two Pro Bowl quarterbacks on the roster.

Joe Burrow is now a member of the Pro Bowl roster this year, too, news announced on Sunday.

Days prior, the announcement of Joe Flacco as a Pro Bowl quarterback proved the Bengals really ripped off the Browns in that midseason trade.

Now, Burrow, Flacco and wideouts Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins are Pro Bowlers.

Got all that?

Hard to blame those who might be confused by the timing here. This reveal was as last-minute as it gets, but the Pro Bowl Games are actually Tuesday, February 3 this year.

There’s been no hard announcement about the Pro Bowl process, but one can guess that voting for the games cut off perhaps before Burrow returned from injury this season, so he was far down the list.

That’s one guess about this surprise, anyway. Either way, Burrow is now a three-time Pro Bowler.
