Cowboys' Ellis is team's 13th Pro Bowler

 
Make that record number of Pro Bowl players for the Dallas Cowboys 13, not 12. Linebacker Greg Ellis became the latest addition Tuesday when he was selected to replace Chicago's Lance Briggs. It's the first such honor for the 10-year veteran, who earlier this month was named the NFL's comeback player of the year. He had a career-best 12 1/2 sacks despite missing the first three games while recovering from a torn Achilles' tendon. [link]
