A year ago, after missing out on the Pro Bowl, Jamal Adams vowed he would not ever be snubbed again.
So far, so good.
Adams was one of three Jets selected Tuesday to represent the AFC in the Pro Bowl, along with kick returner Andre Roberts and kicker Jason Myers. It is the first Pro Bowl selection for all three.
In his second season, Adams has emerged as one of the best safeties in football. The 23-year-old ranks either first or is tied for first among safeties in sacks (3.5), forced fumbles (3), tackles for a loss (9) and quarterback hits (8), while also ranking in the top five in tackles (94) and passes defensed (12).
