The 2015 Pro Bowl featured Team Michael Irvin vs. Team Jerry Rice. Team Irvin won 49-27 in the NFL’s annual all-star game at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu.

Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson, selected as the game’s offensive most valuable player, was 8 of 12 for 164 yards and three touchdown passes going to Julio Jones of Atlanta, Devonta Freeman of Atlanta, and Todd Gurley of the St. Louis Rams.

Defensively, Michael Bennett of Seattle had a sack and a batted pass that led to an interception, and made an impressive performance with the team mascots.

Cincinnati tight end Tyler Eifert left the game with a rare Pro Bowl injury. He injured a foot and left the stadium in a walking book. Initial tests were positive.

Team Irvin led 28-14 at halftime and blew the game open in the second half.
