Two Buffalo Bills Officially Named To NFL Pro Bowl

Today the NFL released the names of players who were voted the Pro Bowl this season and two Buffalo Bills players made the list.

According to the Buffalo Bills, both Josh Allen and Dion Dawkins were officially named Pro Bowlers by the NFL today.

This will be Josh Allen's 3rd Pro Bowl and he joins former Bills quarterbacks Jack Kemp and Jim Kelly as the only Buffalo Bills quarterbacks to be named to three Pro Bowls in their career.

Allen is also the front-runner to win the NFL MVP award this year. We will find out who wins that award in February during the NFL's Honors award ceremony.

This year is Dion Dawkin's 4th Pro Bowl appearance. He becomes the 1st Buffalo Bills offensive lineman to be named to 4+ Pro Bowls in their career. He was tied with former guard Ruben Brown with four before today's announcement.

Several Buffalo Bills players were named as alternates for the Pro Bowl. That means that they will be part of the game if the Pro Bowler at their position pulls out of the game.

The Buffalo Bills players who are alternates are:

Connor McGovern
James Cook
Damar Hamlin
Terrell Bernard
Reggie Gilliman
Ed Oliver
Spencer Brown
Dalton Kincaid

The Bills are gearing up for their regular season finale this Sunday as they travel to New England to take on the Patriots.

Since the Bills have already secured the #2 seed for the AFC Playoffs, chances are they you won't see much of these Pro Bowlers and alternates since the Bills have nothing to gain with a win.
