Default 7 Jets Make the 2009 Pro Bowl

http://www.newyorkjets.com/news/arti...ed-to-pro-bowl

A year after not receiving any Pro Bowl invitations, the New York Jets will send a team to Hawaii in February.

Today the National Football League announced that a franchise-record seven Jets have been selected to play in the league’s annual all-star game.

Four of the seven have been named AFC starters — running back Thomas Jones, guard Alan Faneca, nose tackle Kris Jenkins and kick returner Leon Washington. Three have been named backups — quarterback Brett Favre, center Nick Mangold and cornerback Darrelle Revis.

Four of the above were selected for their first Pro Bowl appearances — Jones, Washington, Mangold and Revis.

Perennial Pro Bowlers Favre, a 10-time selection, and Faneca, who’s been invited eight consecutive years now, are scheduled to make their first trips to Honolulu as Jets. And Jenkins, another newcomer and a four-time selection, will anchor the AFC’s starting defense.

I'm actually surprised Favre is going. Legend in the bowl.

I'm quite satisfied... Every Jet that deserves to go to the Pro Bowl is going.
