Earlier this month, Evans was named as a replacement for Atlanta’s Julio Jones. Now, Evans will compete in Thursday night’s Pro Bowl Skills Showdown in addition to playing in Sunday’s game.Evans joins Ryan Kerrigan, Bobby Wagner, Adam Thielen, George Kittle, Saquon Barkley Jacquizz Rodgers Jersey , Russell Wilson, Cameron Jordan, Mitchell Trubisky and Akiem Hicks on the NFC side. That group will be coached by NFL legends Emmitt Smith and Brian Urlacher.NFL.com outlined some of the events in this year’s skills challenge in their own breakdown of the rosters: This is Evans’ second Pro Bowl, making him the first receiver in franchise history to earn multiple selections. He caught 86 passes for 1,524 yards and eight touchdowns in 2018, totaling eight 100-yard games and a career-high 17.7 yards per catch.Thursday’s Pro Bowl Skills Showdown will air at 9 p.m. on ESPN. The Pro Bowl, also televised by ESPN, is scheduled to kick off at 3 p.m. on Sunday. Both events are being held in Orlando for the third straight year.

Miller started three years for the Falcons Adarius Glanton Jersey , piling up over 2,300 yards and 23 touchdowns. In his senior season he had over 16 yards per catch and was 1st-team All-MAC. He also ran kickoffs back. So what kind of player are the Bucs getting? Miller looks like the heir apparent to Adam Humphries, who left in free agency. Miller isn’t very big - just 5’11 (or 5’09, depending on who you ask) and 174 pounds when wet, but with that kind of speed he could be a pretty good space player at the next level. Miller is a former track athlete, and it shows: 4.39 is flying, and Miller’s 10-yard split is 1.51 seconds. For reference, Humphries ran a 4.53 40-yard dash when he came out of Clemson, with a 1.59 second 10-yard split. To give you an idea of their respective agility Brent Grimes Jersey , Humphries ran the short shuttle at 4.32 seconds, and Miller did it in 4.02. So the athleticism there is promising. Miller definitely has burst and speed to gain separation. The questions will be, can Miller’s body withstand NFL punishment, and will a small catch radius pose problems for quarterback Jameis Winston? Also, with Miller’s relative lack of size and strength, he’ll probably have some issues beating the press. But he’s tough and smart, and he’s got a chance. At the very least, Miller will compete with Justin Watson for the starting slot receiver role vacated by Humphries.
