San Francisco 49ers cornerback Deommodore Lenoir expressed his frustration over not being selected for the Pro Bowl after the announcement of the teams. While four of his teammates were named starters, Lenoir found himself among the alternates, which he perceived as a slight. Taking to social media, he posted comments indicating his displeasure, including a remark about the selection process being influenced more by names than performance.
Lenoir's statistics this season suggest he deserved more recognition. He posted impressive numbers, including a low passer rating allowed and two interceptions, which outperformed some of the selected cornerbacks. Despite being drafted in the fifth round, his performance indicates he may have been overlooked due to a lack of name recognition compared to higher-drafted players.
