SANTA CLARA (CBS SF) — While the San Francisco 49ers lost their chances to make it to the playoffs this season, the team saw a little bit of a silver lining as three players were selected to the NFC Pro Bowl Team.

Inside linebacker Fred Warner, left tackle Trent Williams and fullback Kyle Juszczyk received pro-bowl honors Monday, the day after their 33-41 loss to the Dallas Cowboys signaled the end of their 2020 season.

It’s the first time Warner received pro bowl honors in his three-year career. Teammates refer Warner as “All-Pro Fred” as many in the NFL consider him one of the best, if not the best, inside linebackers in the game. While the team struggled with the majority of its star players being injured, resulting in a losing season, Warner’s play has been a highlight: 101 tackles and two interceptions. He’s been credited with keeping the 49ers’ defense ranked fifth in the NFL, despite so many injured players.
