TAMPA, Fla — As the NFL announced the rosters for the 2023 Pro Bowl team, Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive lineman Tristan Wirfs was named to the team.

Wirfs is the third offensive lineman for the Bucs with multiple Pro Bowl selections, the Buccaneers said in a news release. So far this year, the offensive tackle has totaled 771 offensive snaps, according to Pro Football Focus (PFF) metrics — also yielding just four total pressures, one quarterback hit and one sack. 

He's also one of five qualified tackles to have given up one or fewer sacks this season and is one of eight qualified tackles to have allowed one or fewer quarterback hits, according to the Buccaneers.

Wirfs is the highest-graded right tackle in the NFL for 2022, PFF notes, garnering an 86.8 overall grade and a 90 pass-blocking grade.

He joins Tony Marberry and Davin Joseph for an offensive lineman to receive multiple Pro Bowl selections. Wirfs is the only one of the three who has been selected to multiple Pro Bowls in the player's first three career seasons.

The Bucs had two players named as first alternates: Tom Brady and safety Antoine Winfield Jr. Other alternates include guard Shaq Mason, kicker Ryan Succop, nose tackle Vita Vea and linebacker Devin White. 

The Pro Bowl will take place on Sunday, Feb. 5, at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
