NFL: Arizona DT Darnell Dockett added to Pro Bowl

Associated Press

TEMPE, Ariz. — Arizona Cardinals defensive tackle Darnell Dockett has been added to the NFC Pro Bowl roster, replacing Tommie Harris of the Chicago Bears.

Harris is out with a knee injury. It will be the first Pro Bowl appearance for Dockett, who joins wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald as Cardinals' representatives for the game to be placed Feb. 10 in Honolulu.

In his fourth NFL season, Dockett led the Cardinals and all NFL interior linemen with a career-high nine sacks. He had 75 tackles, forced two fumbles, recovered two fumbles and had 14 sacks while starting all 16 games.

Dockett initially was chosen as a Pro Bowl first alternate.
