During a 60-season history, the Minnesota Vikings have had several players that were worthy of Pro Bowl selection but never formally received the honors.
It’s not an occurrence exclusive to the Vikings. All NFL teams have head-scratching scenarios where notable players never received the coveted Pro Bowl nod.
During the last decade, the Vikings lavishly outpaced their division rivals via Pro Bowl selections. Since 2010, 24 Vikings players have been tapped for Pro Bowl recognition.
The Pro Bowl is not gospel in determining greatness, though. Instead, it’s a bestowment that looks fancy on a player’s resume and is often adjudicated when a generational player flirts with Hall of Fame ambitions.
