Four Tennessee Titans players took part in the 2022 Pro Bowl on Sunday, a game that saw the AFC, which was coached by head coach Mike Vrabel, defeat the NFC, 41-35.
The four Titans who took part were safety Kevin Byard, left guard Rodger Saffold, defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons and outside linebacker Harold Landry. Byard was the only one of the four to be initially voted in, while Landry, Simmons and Saffold were all injury replacements.
Byard had the most notable play of the contest among Titans players after he snatched an interception on a pass from Minnesota Vikings quarterback, Kirk Cousins, which he returned for 44 yards. Byard also added a pair of tackles and one pass defended.

Simmons didn’t record a tackle or sack in the contest, but he did have this pass break-up against Seattle Seahawks quarterback, Russell Wilson.
"How did @GrindSimmons94 not make the Pro Bowl all by himself? Why did he have to be a replacement?"

Landry finished the game with five tackles (three solo), tied for the second-most on the team. Even Saffold got in the mix with a tackle of his own.
The AFC has now been victorious in each of the last five Pro Bowls. Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert and Las Vegas Raiders edge rusher Maxx Crosby were named the MVPs of the game.
