Sweat is the fifth Eagle to earn Pro Bowl honors this season, joining defensive tackle Javon Hargrave, center Jason Kelce, kicker Jake Elliott and cornerback Darius Slay.

Sweat posted a career-high 7.5 sacks, tied with Hargrave for the team lead, to go along with 45 tackles and seven tackles for loss in his first year as a starter.
