Collins On, Favre Off Pro Bowl Roster

New York Jets quarterback Brett Favre has pulled out of the Pro Bowl because of the shoulder injury that plagued him late in the season, according to several reports.

He is to be replaced on the AFC roster by Tennessee's Kerry Collins.

San Diego's Philip Rivers was the first alternate but he declined the invitation because of a sore knee, according to the reports.
