PHOENIX, Ariz. - Former Presbyterian College and current Arizona Cardinals defensive back Justin Bethel (Blythewood, S.C.) has earned his second straight invitation to the National Football League Pro Bowl on Sunday, January 25 at 8 p.m. from University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Ariz.
The third-year player became Presbyterian College's first-ever Pro Bowler last season and will be one of two players to appear as a special teamer. Bethel has 18 special-teams tackles this season, a forced fumble and blocked a field goal in a win against Dallas. He registered a season-high five tackles against St. Louis on December 11 and four in wins over San Francisco (September 21) and Kansas City (December 7).
The Cardinals drafted Bethel in the sixth round of the 2012 NFL Draft.
