The 2023 regular season is about to come to an end with Week 18 on the horizon, and with that being said, the NFL announced the rosters for the 2024 Pro Bowl Games on Wednesday night.
Six Dolphins made the team – quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, running back Raheem Mostert, fullback Alec Ingold, wide receiver Tyreek Hill, left tackle Terron Armstead and cornerback Jalen Ramsey.
While everyone is excited for those who made the Pro Bowl, there are always discussions surrounding who should’ve made the roster. And, after the team was announced, Dolphins linebacker Bradley Chubb took to social media to voice his displeasure in three of his teammates who didn’t make it.
No 43, 94, 92 is crazy!! https://t.co/qNtqxnhFv9

Andrew Van Ginkel, Christian Wilkins and Zach Sieler are having incredible seasons.
Van Ginkel, despite being a rotational piece for part of the year, has recorded 68 tackles (eight for a loss), 18 quarterback hits, eight passes defensed (career-high), six sacks (career-high) and an interception that he returned for a touchdown. He’s also been Pro Football Focus’ seventh-highest graded edge defender (91.2).
Wilkins has put up 61 tackles (11 for a loss), 20 quarterback hits (career-high), eight sacks (career-high) and two passes defensed.
Sieler, after receiving a contract extension before the year, has 56 tackles (11 for a loss), 20 quarterback hits (career-high), 9.5 sacks (career-high), four passes defensed, one forced fumble and one interception that was returned for a score. Only one interior defensive lineman has more sacks than Sieler in the AFC – Justin Madubuike (13).
Even Chubb, himself, had a strong case before tearing his ACL, as he recorded 74 tackles (career-high), 22 quarterback hits (career-high), 11 sacks, a league-leading six forced fumbles (career-high) and two passes defensed.
All four were named as alternates, so there’s a chance that three healthy Dolphins (Van Ginkel, Wilkins and Sieler) get to represent Miami this year eventually if players bow out.
