Packers’ Peppers headed to Pro Bowl

(WNFL) – Green Bay Packers linebacker Julius Peppers has been added to the Pro Bowl roster on Monday, replacing Denver linebacker Von Miller. Miller is unable to participate due to his teams advancing to the Super Bowl against Carolina. This is Peppers ninth trip to the Pro Bowl and first as a member of the Packers. He recorded a team-high ten-point-five sacks, 42 tackles, two forced fumbles, eight quarterback hits and 19 pressures during the 2015 regular season. It marked his ninth season with ten-plus sacks. Peppers has 136 career sacks, which is tied with Jared Allen for the most sacks among active players and ninth most in N-F-L history.
