For LB T.J. Watt and S Minkah Fitzpatrick, making the Pro Bowl is still an honor. But it’s nothing they haven’t done before. For Watt, this is his sixth selection. For Fitzpatrick, his fourth. But for the third Steeler heading to Orlando in February, S and special teamer Miles Killebrew, yesterday was a special day. Thanks to his elite ability to block punts, Killebrew earned his first Pro Bowl berth.
Speaking to reporters Thursday, Killebrew said he could hardly believe the news.
“For what?” Killebrew said of his reaction after being congratulated yesterday, via The Trib’s Chris Adamski.
