Panthers center the only Pro Bowl starter from either Carolina or Redskins

Panthers center Ryan Kalil has been named a starter for the NFC in the Pro Bowl. He was the only starter from either the Carolina Panthers or the Washington Redskins, the two teams historically associated with North Carolina. Steve Smith, the Panthers receiver, was named to the squad but not as a starter. The Redskins, 5-10, had no representatives selected despite the fact that Redskins linebacker London Fletcher leads the NFL in tackles.

Fan votes counted for one third of the vote, as did the players’ votes and the coaches’ votes. For a full listing of the Pro Bowl selections, please click here.
