In case you missed it, a total of three Atlanta Falcons players will be competing in this year's annual Pro Bowl. Safety Keanu Neal and linebacker Deion Jones were recently added to the NFC roster as replacements – and they'll join center Alex Mack in Orlando this week.
Like Mack, Falcons receiver Julio Jones was also named a Pro Bowl starter, but Jones will not be participating. Green Bay Packers receiver Davante Adams has replaced Jones on the NFC roster. Both Mack and Jones are four-time Pro Bowl selections.
Deion Jones, who will be making his first appearance, is replacing Panthers linebacker Luke Kuechly on the NFC roster. Neal will replace Eagles safety Malcolm Jenkins, who is playing in Super Bowl LII.
