Murray, Watt, Brown, Haden To Serve As Pro Bowl Captains

Dallas Cowboys running back DeMarco Murray, Houston defensive end J.J. Watt, Pittsburgh wide receiver Antonio Brown and Cleveland cornerback Joe Haden will serve as Pro Bowl captains.

The NFL said Thursday that Watt and Brown will be paired and Murray and Haden will work together for the Sunday, Jan. 25 game at University of Phoenix Stadium.

The captains will help determine rosters for Team Carter and Team Irvin during the Pro Bowl Draft on Jan. 21. Cris Carter and Michael Irvin will serve as alumni team captains and will have final say over draft decisions.

John Randle and Darren Woodson will serve as defensive captains, with Randle assisting Carter, and Woodson working with Irvin. The first selection in the draft and the pairing of the captains will be determined in a coin toss Jan. 20.
