The Pro Bowl players were announced and there are always some interesting and curious choices. The reality of the fact is that there are a lot of deserving players but a limited number of spots and some players get left out.
One of those players was New York Jets defensive lineman Sheldon Richardson, and his head coach, Rex Ryan, wasn’t having it.
“If it kept him out of the Pro Bowl because some guy had ‘X’ amount of sacks, and that guy can’t hold his jock as a player, to be honest with you, I think that’s kind of strange to me,” Ryan said, via Dom Cosentino of NJ.com. “I guess you guys will figure out who I’m talking about.”
Cosentino did some investigatin and an unnamed source explained that Ryan was talking about St. Louis Rams’ Aaron Donald.
“Clearly, the guys missed on Sheldon Richardson,” Ryan said. “You’ve got to look at the big picture … I see the tapes. This guy deserves to be in there. There’s no doubt about it.”
Don’t ever change Rex… now who wants him as your head coach after the New York Jets can him in January?
