The NFL's long process for adjusting and re-adjusting its Pro Bowl rosters, based on injuries and postseason participation, has begun. So far, three NFC North players have been affected. I'll do my best to keep you updated throughout the next few weeks.
Monday, Chicago Bears linebackers Lance Briggs and Brian Urlacher pulled out for injury reasons. One of the replacements was Minnesota Vikings linebacker Chad Greenway, who will make his first Pro Bowl appearance. Below is the running list I'll keep of NFC North participants and non-participants for those interested:
