After previously being selected as an alternate for this year’s Pro Bowl, Atlanta Falcons tight end Austin Hooper will now participate in the game. It’s been announced that the 3rd-year tight end will replace Philadelphia Eagles TE Zach Ertz on the NFC Roster. Hooper finished the 2018 season as the 4th best tight end in terms of receptions, and 7th in receiving yards.
Hooper’s 2018 season has by far been his best, as many fans entered the season questioning his role in the offense.
