Four Packers Earn Pro Bowl Selections
posted 12/18/2007
Represented by two selections on each side of the ball, the Green Bay Packers learned Tuesday that quarterback
Brett Favre, wide receiver
Donald Driver, defensive end
Aaron Kampman and cornerback
Al Harris were named Pro Bowl selections by the National Football League.
Three Packers players were named first alternates: linebacker
Nick Barnett, tackle
Chad Clifton and cornerback
Charles Woodson.
For Favre, this marks the ninth Pro Bowl selection of his career and first since 2003. This season, the NFC's leader in passing yards has broken some of the league's most hallowed records, including career touchdown passes, passing yards and wins.
Driver earns his second consecutive and third career Pro Bowl selection. He tied a franchise record with 1,000 receiving yards in a fifth overall season, joining Sterling Sharpe and Pro Football Hall of Famer James Lofton as one of three Packers to achieve that feat.
Kampman, in his sixth season out of Iowa, returns to Hawaii for the second consecutive year. The defensive end has started 72 consecutive games for the Packers and stands tied for third in the NFC with 12 sacks.
Harris is the only Packers player making his first trip to the Pro Bowl. In his 10th NFL season and fifth with Green Bay, he has totaled 36 tackles, two interceptions and nine pass deflections.
Other alternates include safety
Nick Collins, tight end
Bubba Franks, running back
Ryan Grant, linebacker
A.J. Hawk, wide receiver
Greg Jennings, tight end
Donald Lee and center
Scott Wells.
