Wallaceburg’s own Shaun Suisham could be making a trip to the Pro Bowl this season.
Enjoying a solid 10th campaign in the NFL, the Pittsburgh Steelers kicker is 18-20 on field goal attempts, good for a 90 per cent clip.
He is also perfect on extra points this year as well.
Voting is currently open online for the Pro Bowl, and fans can cast their vote right here.
There is no limit on how many times people can vote.
Fans can continue to cast their Pro Bowl votes online through Dec. 15.
The fans’ votes count as one-third of the Pro Bowl selection criteria, with the votes of the coaches and players making up the other two thirds.
The Pro Bowl will be played on Jan. 25, a week before the Super Bowl and at the same site as the championship game, at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.
Our friends at the Chatham-Kent Sports Network did their part to help spread the word for Suisham this week.
An article written by former Wallaceburg resident Ian Kennedy, who owns CKSN, was featured on the NFL Canada blog!
After having a bye this week, Suisham and the Steelers are back in action on Sunday at 1 p.m. when they host New Orleans.
