Jared Goff, Derek Carr named as Pro Bowl replacements
The 2018 Pro Bowl is six days away, and the close of the conference championship games means we know the Super Bowl teams. Those two teams will not participate in the Pro Bowl, and that usually means quite a few replacements. For this year’s game, it has resulted in Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff and Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr getting added to the rosters.
Goff is replacing Carson Wentz, while Carr is replacing Tom Brady. Wentz would not have played regardless of the Super Bowl because of his torn ACL. That being said, it’s kind of cool to see Goff, the No. 1 pick of the 2016 NFL Draft, replacing Wentz, the No. 2 pick of the 2016 NFL Draft.
