ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Kyle Williams has been added to the AFC Pro Bowl roster as an injury replacement for Oakland's Richard Seymour.

Williams finished the season with 5.5 sacks, second-most among NFL players at his position. He also was credited with 77 tackles. Both were career highs.

This will mark Williams' first Pro Bowl appearance since being selected by Buffalo in the fifth round of the 2006 draft out of LSU.

A hamstring injury forced Seymour to miss the Raiders' season finale against the Kansas City Chiefs.
