Jared Goff added to Pro Bowl roster, is 2nd Detroit Lions QB picked for game in 50 years

Jared Goff is in rare company as a Detroit Lions quarterback.

Goff was added to the NFC Pro Bowl roster Tuesday, joining teammates Frank Ragnow, Penei Sewell and Amon-Ra St. Brown in the game.

The Lions have four offensive players in the Pro Bowl for the first time since 1971, and Goff is the second Lions quarterback to make the Pro Bowl in the past 50 years.

Matthew Stafford, in 2014, became the first Lions quarterback picked for the Pro Bowl since Greg Landry in 1971.
