Jamaal Charles, Brees, Quinn, Watt named Pro Bowl captains

The active player captains for the 2014 Pro Bowl will be New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees, St. Louis Rams defensive end Robert Quinn, Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt and Kansas City Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles, the NFL announced Thursday.

Brees and Quinn will be paired together, while Watt and Charles will work as a duo.

These four captains, which are comprised of the top two leading vote getters on offense and defense from the teams that did not advance to the conference championship round, will help determine rosters for Team Rice and Team Sanders during the first-ever Pro Bowl Draft on Jan. 21-22.

Pro Football Hall of Famers Jerry Rice and Deion Sanders will serve as alumni team captains for the Pro Bowl squads and have final say over draft decisions. The NFL legends will each be assisted by two active player captains and one NFL.com fantasy football champion in the draft process.

To determine which team owns the first selection in the Pro Bowl Draft and how the alumni captains will be paired with active player captains, there will be a coin toss Jan. 21.

The 2014 Pro Bowl Draft will be nationally televised on Jan. 21-22 with primetime broadcasts on NFL Network on Tuesday (8-9 p.m. ET) and Wednesday (8-11 p.m. ET).

The Pro Bowl Draft will be held in Kapolei, HI., on the grounds of Lanikuhonua, adjacent to the JW Marriott Ihilani Ko Olina Resort & Spa.

All 88 Pro Bowl players are expected to be in attendance for Wednesday's live show. The 2014 Pro Bowl, presented by McDonald's, will be played at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu. The game will be televised live Sunday, Jan. 26 on NBC at 7 p.m. ET.
