McNabb, Mikell added to Pro Bowl

Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb and safety Quintin Mikell were added to the NFC Pro Bowl roster today.

McNabb replaces Saints quarterback Drew Brees, who is out of the game after the Saints advanced to the Super Bowl with a win over the Minnesota Vikings. Mikell replaces the Saints' Darren Sharper.

Nine Eagles players are slated to play in this year's game. Wideout DeSean Jackson, fullback Leonard Weaver, tackle Jason Peters, kicker David Akers, long snapper Jon Dorenbos, defensive end Trent Cole and cornerback Asante Samuel were already named to the NFC squad.
