Ravens Sam Koch, Marshal Yanda Headed To Pro Bowl

BALTIMORE (WJZ)-- Two Baltimore Ravens have been selected for the NFL's annual all-star game.

Right guard Marshal Yanda was selected and (finally) the veteran punter Sam Koch is finally going to the Pro Bowl.

Koch has established himself as one of the NFL's best punters, leading the NFL in net punting average.

"This has definitely been a long time in the making," Koch said. "This is a very surreal and exciting moment for my family and me. I can't wait to represent the Ravens in Hawaii."

In addition to Koch and Yanda, the Ravens have fullback Kyle Juszczyk and inside linebacker C.J. Mosely going as alternates in case they can't participate because of injuries.

The 2016 Pro Bowl will be held on Sunday, Jan. 31, 2016, at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu, Hawaii, a week before Super Bowl 50, which will take place at the new Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
