Aaron Rodgers equals Packer’s record for Pro Bowl selections

Aaron Rodgers joined Pro Football Hall of Famers Brett Favre and Forrest Gregg as the only players in Green Bay Packers history to be selected for nine Pro Bowls.

Rodgers, who leads the NFL this season in touchdown passes (40) and passer-by (118.0), was selected Monday for his ninth Pro Bowl. The two-time MVP was a Pro Bowler in 2009, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018, 2019 and now 2020.

Rodgers joins six other active players with at least nine Pro Bowl selections (Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Larry Fitzgerald, Jason Witten, Jason Peters and Maurkice Pouncey).

Rodgers is now tied for the sixth most Pro Bowl selections among quarterbacks of all time. Only Brady (14), Peyton Manning (14), Drew Brees (13), Brett Favre (11, one with Minnesota) and Johnny Unitas (10) have more. Rodgers has been linked with John Elway, Dan Marino, Warren Moon, Fran Tarkenton and Norm Van Brocklin on nine selections. Any quarterback with at least nine Pro Bowl selections is either a Hall of Famer or a prospective Hall of Famer.
