PITTSBURGH (93.7 The Fan) – With a Pro Bowl roster dominated with Ravens (nine), the Steelers have four named to the Pro Bowl games, but all of the Steelers representatives are starters and all have been there before.

TJ Watt

Named on Wednesday as the Steelers most valuable player for a fifth time (most in team history), Watt has 11.5 sacks, 19 tackles for loss and six forced fumbles. It’s his seventh time being elected to the Pro Bowl.

Cam Heyward

Coming off a new contract and a season after being limited with a groin injury, Heyward has been the Steelers most consistent defensive player. The 35-year-old has 70 tackles from an inside position with eight sacks and 12 tackles for loss. It’s also his seventh time to the Pro Bowl.

Minkah Fitzpatrick

He got his first interception of the season against the Ravens. He also has a forced fumble and 60 solo tackles as part of his 93 on the season. It’s his fifth time to the Pro Bowl.

Chris Boswell

He might be the Steelers offensive MVP if they had that as a category. Twice he accounted for all of the points in a win by hitting six field goals. He’s made 93% of his kicks on the season and that includes 12 of 50 or more yards. It’s his second appearance at the Pro Bowl games.
