In just his 2nd season, Justin Herbert is already on the Pro Bowl team as the likely starter:

Awesome! I was hard on Herbert at times when he was our guy. He has basically made me eat crow like crazy as a pro and I couldn’t be happier.

Field Yates choose Penei as his 1 snub for the Pro Bowl roster.

I haven’t paid attention but what position was he playing this year? I know in the preseason he played RG and struggled but when the LT got injured he replaced him and did great there. He even stopped Nick Bosa for most of the season opener. Did he continue to play LT or is Campbell just another stubborn coach that won’t put Penei where he’s best?

He played like the first 7-8 games at LT before switching to RT. His pass pro has taken some work but he's also barely 21 and killing it in the run game

It’s hard to make a pro bowl when you are on a crap team, and they switched him from LT to RT mid year. I hope he leaves Detroit as soon as his rookie deal ends.

Penei needs to get out of Detroit. That franchise is cursed.

There’s a small contingent of Lions fans who don’t hate Joey, and think he’d have been a star in a real franchise.
