For the second year in a row, Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck was the first pick in the Pro Bowl draft.

Luck was selected by Team Carter, which is led by Hall of Fame wide receiver Cris Carter and captains J.J. Watt, a Houston Texans defensive end, and Antonio Brown, a Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver.

“It’s nice, I guess,” Luck said. “The reality is that everybody is deserving of it. There’s a bunch of No. 1 picks in there, but it’s nice, I guess.”

Asked how he felt after losing the AFC Championship Game to the New England Patriots on Sunday night, Luck said, “It’s sort of, the energy is sort of sucked out of you. You do feel deflated.”

Luck didn’t intend the comment to be a jab at the Patriots over the underinflated footballs that they apparently used during the title game. He went on to say he didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary with the balls.

Team Irvin, led by Hall of Fame wide receiver Michael Irvin and captains DeMarco Murray, a Dallas Cowboys running back and Joe Haden, a Cleveland Browns cornerback, made Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo its first selection.

“This is a special event, just for anybody who gets to play in the Pro Bowl,” Romo said. “It’s just an honor to really play in the game. I don’t care if your first or last or any of that stuff, it’s just lucky to be a part of it.”

The two-day draft began Tuesday with each side selecting three defensive linemen, three guards, two centers, one fullback, one punter, one kicker, one returner and one special teams player.

The rest of the players were chosen during the televised portion of the draft Wednesday night.
