Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Allen Robinson was perhaps the season's biggest Pro Bowl snub after a breakout 2015 campaign.

However, that wrong was righted Thursday after he was added to the Pro Bowl roster, replacing Detroit Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson.

Robinson was named as first alternative, and will replace Johnson as an injury replacement.

The second-year wideout caught 80 passes for 1,400 yards and 14 touchdowns this season, becoming only the fourth player in NFL history with 1,400 receiving yards at age 22 or younger.

Robinson is the first Jacksonville player to participate in the Pro Bowl since linebacker Paul Posluszny in 2013.
