    • Of course, there are many other Vikings players having good seasons who should be considered for the Pro Bowl. Guys like Adam Thielen, Cordarrelle Patterson, and Trae Waynes are all making big strides this season and could be worth a vote this year.

    Of course, there are plenty of other great players around the NFL who are very deserving of playing in the Pro Bowl. Not only is being invited to the game a big honor for players, but many have bonuses or incentives in their contracts that would make participating in or being named to the team a big deal for them.

    Make your vote count!
