New England Patriots running back LeGarrette Blount has 15 rushing touchdowns this season for a team single-season record to go along with a career high 1,060 yards. He was not selected to the Pro Bowl.

On his twitter Tuesday, Blount took a classy route to the news by congratulating his fellow running backs that did get chosen for Hawaii.

Congratulations to all the RBs that made it to the Pro Bowl!! Especially my fam @L_Bell26 and the big homie @CutonDime25 https://t.co/0MmOJsJDs8
