Latavius Murray only Oakland Raiders player drafted to Team Irvin
Seattle Seahawks middle linebacker Bobby Wagner (54) and cornerback Richard Sherman sign autographs for fans before the NFL football Pro Bowl draft Wednesday, Jan. 27, 2016, at Wheeler Army Airfield in Wahiawa, Hawaii.
Rice, who was a standout wide receiver for the San Francisco 49ers, Oakland Raiders and Seattle Seahawks, is the NFL’s all-time leader in receptions (1,549), receiving yards (22,895) and touchdowns (208 total; 197 receiving, 10 rushing and one return-touchdown).
Wilson got the start for Team Irvin and completed 8-12 passes for 164 yards along with the three touchdowns to become only the second Seahawk to win Pro Bowl honors, joining Warren Moon in 1998 (or following the 1997 season). The first was a 14-yarder to Julio Jones of the Atlanta Falcons, and the next from 11 yards out to Devonta Freeman, also of the Falcons. His first was a 2-yard pass to Philadelphia running back Darren Sproles late in the second quarter.
The rosters for the Pro Bowl have already been set and feature some of the top players in the game on both team Michael Irvin and team Jerry Rice. It certainly was fun watching some Seahawks go up against each other, but I would rather watch the team play together.
The halftime festivities included a parade of local high school football players.
T.Y. Hilton had one catch for 20 yards in the NFL’s all-star game in Honolulu. He threw for 4,024 passing yards, 34 touchdowns and eight interceptions, becoming the first quarterback in Seahawks history to reach the 4,000-yard mark.
The veteran cornerback, who made the Pro Bowl for the first time since 2009 when he played for the Cardinals, grabbed the first on a pass by Raiders rookie Derek Carr, the younger brother of former Giants backup quarterback David Carr. This is so similar to what Cam Newton did toward the end of last year, which was year four.
But Team Irvin put the game away with three straight TDs: a 50-yard catch by Robinson from Bridgewater, a 53-yard reception by Walker from Winston and a 7-yarder by Hopkins, also thrown by Winston. When he played in the game, however, Taylor showed off a more reckless side.
– A two-minute warning will be added to the first and third quarters.
Ansah stayed quiet until the third quarter when he pressured Buffalo Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor on a play-action rollout. Woodson announced during the season that this would be his previous year.
