Javon Hargrave is now a first-time Pro Bowler after the postseason alternate was named to the team as a replacement for Packers injured defensive tackle, Kenny Clark.
Hargrave had a career season in 2021, Logging six sacks in the first five games of the season before opposing teams started to slide protection Hargrave’s way and double him.
Hargrave finished the season with just 1 1/2 sacks, logging a career-high 7 1/2 sacks, 9 tackles for loss, and one postseason sack in the Eagles playoff loss to the Buccaneers.
The talented defensive tackle carries a hefty salary cap hit into the 2022 NFL season, but he should again help anchor a Philadelphia defensive front that’ll be in flux with Brandon Graham returning, along with Derek Barnett and Ryan Kerrigan likely departing.
