PITTSBURGH, PA - DECEMBER 10: Le'Veon Bell #26 of the Pittsburgh Steelers carries the ball against Michael Pierce #97 of the Baltimore Ravens in the second half during the game at Heinz Field on December 10, 2017 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
The 2018 NFL Pro Bowl rosters were released on Tuesday, and the Pittsburgh Steelers lead all teams with a league-best eight selections.
The eight Steelers playing in the Bowl — which will be held Jan. 28 at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Florida — are Antonio Brown, Ben Roethlisberger, Le’Veon Bell, Chris Boswell, Ryan Shazier, who suffered a season-ending spinal injury earlier this month, Alejandro Villanueva, David DeCastro and center Maurkice Pouncey.
In the NFC, the New Orleans Saints and Philadelphia Eagles tied for tops in the conference with six picks each. Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz was selected despite recently sustaining a knee injury that caused him to miss Sunday’s game.
