Maurice Jones-Drew Has Longest Run In 2012 Pro Bowl

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Maurice Jones-Drew led the NFL in rushing during the 2011 NFL season and easily made the 2012 NFL Pro Bowl. Running the football wasn't a priority in the 2012 Pro Bowl game really, because it's physical and the game is more of a glorified full padded practice than anything else. That didn't stop Jones-Drew however, who ripped off the games longest run of the day by going right up the cut. Jones-Drew broke one tackle, spun, and broke another tackle before he was finally chased down by Patrick Willis and Clay Matthews.

Jones-Drew not only had the longest run of the day, but he had the most rushing yards in the game as well. He ended the afternoon with six carries for 56 yards, including his long run of 39 yards. The only other Jaguars player in the game was fullback Montell Owens, who made the game as a special teamer. Unlike last year's Pro Bowl, Owens didn't get any carries.
