Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee added to Pro Bowl roster
Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee has been added to the 2016 Pro Bowl roster. He will replace Kansas City’s Justin Houston, who bowed out due to injury.
This is Lee’s first trip to the Pro Bowl and comes after a career season for the six-year veteran.
He led the Cowboys with career-highs in tackles (156) and tackles for loss (11). Lee also notched 2.5 sacks.
His Pro Bowl-worthy performance came one season after missing all of 2014 with a knee injury.
It also came during his first year at weakside linebacker after playing middle linebacker for the first five years of his career.
He joins offensive linemen Tyron Smith, Zack Martin, Travis Frederick and kicker Dan Bailey in the game.
Also on Wednesday, the Cowboys signed linebacker Jerrell Harris, guard Jared Smith and tackle Justin Renfrow to the Reserve/Future list.
