Only two players from the New England Patriots made it to the Pro Bowl. There are plenty of guys who also deserve to be on the team.

Usually the New England Patriots have no one playing in the Pro Bowl.  This season it looks like that may change and New England will be underrepresented.

Since the Patriots are usually playing in the Super Bowl, they are busy practicing and not on vacation. If the Patriots fail to make it to the big game, only two players will be headed to Orlando.

Tom Brady and Stephon Gilmore are the only Pro Bowlers from New England. The Patriots haven’t had less than 3 Pro Bowlers since 2008. This is just another negative first for New England this season.

Gilmore definitely earned his nod. This has been Gilmore’s best season of his career. He has been shutting guys down week in and week out. This is Gilmore’s 2nd Pro Bowl nomination of his career.

Even though this has been a down season for Tom Brady he still deserves the honor. With New England and Brady struggling as of late, it’s easy to forget just how great Brady is. He has now been a Pro Bowler 14 times.

It was stunning to see some Patriots not make the cut. There was definitely a few snubs to say the least.

So let’s look at 3 New England Patriots who deserved to make the Pro Bowl roster this season.
