Feel sorry for whoever has to line up across from you, in whatever it is you want to do next!
Aaron Donald and Barry Sanders are the only players in NFL history to play at least 10 seasons and get selected to the Pro Bowl in each season, per ESPN’s @EpKap. Like Donald, Sanders also played exactly 10 seasons. pic.twitter.com/tc3DRl4pKi
