The Pro Bowl rosters are out and the AFC team has a couple Raiders on it.
Maxx Crosby makes the roster despite finishing seventh in Pro Bowl fan voting. Apparently the fact that he finished third in the NFL in tackles for loss despite missing four games already was enough for the other 2/3 of the decision-making process to override the fan opinion. Which, honestly, is the right way to do it.
Brock Bowers has also been named to the team at tight end. He currently leads all NFL tight ends in catches (108) and yards (1144) and has not only broken the rookie TE yards record, but the rookie receptions record and the Raiders franchise single-season receptions record.
Not making the initial team was Robert Spillane, who finished fifth in Pro Bowl fan voting. He will still have the chance to make the squad as an alternate.
