Browns left tackle Joe Thomas joined some exclusive company by being named to the AFC Pro Bowl team for the fifth consecutive year. The only franchise player to accomplish the feat in his first five seasons was Jim Brown (1958-66), who made it nine years in a row. Two other Browns were named alternates to the 2012 Pro Bowl. Linebacker D'Qwell Jackson was second alternate at inside linebacker. Josh Cribbs was second alternate at kick returner and third alternate at special teams. Source: Cleveland Plain Dealer
