Tress Goes Bowling, Former Redskins Represent

Tress Way participated in his first Pro Bowl on Sunday, something that meant a lot to him. He was the only Redskins player to take part but a few former Redskins were involved in the game and one shined well early on.

In the first half, Way had two punts for a total of 82 yards, an average of 41 per punt. He recovered a blocked extra point attempt  in the third quarter and finished that way, with no boots in the second-half of a wild contest.

On both Way punts, former Redskins receiver and kick returner and current Bills Pro Bowl returner Andre Roberts, who returned both kicks for a total of 11 yards. 

Roberts had two catches for a total of 30 yards including a touchdown in the first half. That's how Roberts finished his day as well. 

Kirk Cousins  threw a touchdown pass to Davante Adams of the Packers on his first drive,  after hooking up on a deep pass to Michael Thomas and taking an unnecessary shot from Earl Thomas of the Ravens.  

Cousins finished (13-22), 181 yards with two passing touchdowns and an interception. Cousins also had a fumble lost that turned into a long touchdown return by T.J. Watt of the Steelers. 

Brandon Scherff was named a Pro Bowl reserve but due to surgery, but he did not participate as expected. 

Landon Collins and Matt Ioannidis were both alternates but did not make the actual game. 

The AFC won 38-33.
