Russell Wilson is playing the best football of his career, earning him a trip to the Pro Bowl.
The Seattle Seahawks quarterback was one of seven Seattle players to be selected to the game. Carolina running back and former Oregon star Jonathan Stewart was selected to play in his first Pro Bowl and he was one of 10 Panthers selected, the NFL announced Tuesday afternoon.
St. Louis Rams punter and former Oregon State player Johnny Hekker was selected to the Pro Bowl.
