Cooper DeJean Makes Pro Bowl, Joins Rare Eagles Defensive Duo
Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Cooper DeJean has been selected to the Pro Bowl in his second season. This achievement is particularly notable as he and fellow second-year cornerback Quinyon Mitchell are the first Eagles defensive teammates in their first or second year ever to make the Pro Bowl in the same season. This marks only the second time in NFL history that a single team has had two cornerbacks in their first or second season make the Pro Bowl in the same year, a feat previously accomplished by the 1961 Houston Oilers.
