Matt Light Pro-Bowl question

[jczxohn1]

While I was glad to see our guy in the Pro-Bowl, I was unclear how he got there. Was he the next in line in the balloting as an injury replacement? Or after the top picks are made did the choice fall to the coach of the team as openings occur? Didn't see this mentioned anywhere.

He may well have been the 2nd alternate. The Patriots don't announce their alternates like some other teams do, so we'll never really know. However he wasn't a coaches' decision. He seems to have been voted the fifth best offensive tackle in the AFC.
