Vikings' Danielle Hunter, Harrison Smith, Adam Thielen, Anthony Barr named to Pro Bowl

Defensive end Danielle Hunter, who has already set a career high with 14½ sacks this season, added another honor to his 2018 season when he was named to his first Pro Bowl on Tuesday night.

Hunter was one of four Vikings named to the 2018 NFC team, joining linebacker Anthony Barr, safety Harrison Smith and wide receiver Adam Thielen. The four players will play in the game on Jan. 27 in Orlando.

Thielen, who was named to his second Pro Bowl team, is second in the league with 105 receptions this season. His career-high 1,255 yards make him the first Vikings wideout to record back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons since Randy Moss did it from 1998 to 2003.
