Vince Young replaces Philip Rivers on Pro Bowl roster

Posted by Michael David Smith on January 20, 2010 6:50 PM ET

Through the first seven weeks of the season, Tennessee Titans quarterback Vince Young hadn't even completed a pass. Now he's a Pro Bowler.

Young, who became the Titans' starter in Week Eight and led the team from 0-6 to 8-8, was named to his second Pro Bowl today. He replaces Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers, who pulled out, citing an injury.

"I was working out when Coach [Jeff] Fisher called me and told me the news this afternoon," Young said today in a statement released by the team. "I was very excited to find out that I'm getting a chance to go play in the Pro Bowl. Thanks to all my teammates, coaches and fans that have supported me."

The AFC Pro Bowl quarterbacks were originally supposed to be Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Rivers. Then Brady pulled out, first alternate Ben Roethlisberger declined to participate, second alternate Matt Schaub took Brady's spot, and now Young, the third alternate, is taking Rivers' place.

So if Manning has to withdraw because the Colts go to the Super Bowl, Schaub will be the AFC's Pro Bowl starter, with Young and the fourth alternate (whose identity is not currently known) backing him up.

Schaub had a good season, but you can't complain when Ben Roethlisberger is the first alternate ahead of him.

But at the end of the day, I don't give a rat's ass about the Pro Bowl.

It's as useless as any other post season award.

You guys act like people watched the Pro Bowl when it WAS in Hawaii.

what happened to Philip Rivers? Is he having the boot removed from his ass?

They need to just get rid of it, it's an outdated concept.

Rivers hurt his vagina again?

There appears to be NO pro bowl QBs in the AFC going.

time to eliminate the stupid idea anyway.

Kyle Orton deserved to be the Pro Bowl alternate. Only Peyton Manning and Aaron Rodgers had more 90 + QB Rating games than Kyle Orton.
