Ed Reed to miss Pro Bowl

OWINGS MILLS — Baltimore Ravens free safety Ed Reed has withdrawn from the Pro Bowl due to lingering injuries from this past season.

Reed dealt with hip and groin problems as well as his chronic nerve impingement issue in his neck and shoulder.

In an emotional state following the Ravens’ AFC divisional round loss to the Indianapolis Colts, Reed said that he’s “50-50” on whether he’ll retire. However, teammates and coach John Harbaugh expect Reed to play football again this fall.

With Reed out of the game, as well as Indianapolis Colts safety Antoine Bethea and Buffalo Bills safety Jairus Byrd, the AFC squad’s safeties are the New England Patriots’ Brandon Meriweather, the Denver Broncos’ Brian Dawkins and the Miami Dolphins’ Yeremiah Bell.
