The Chicago Bears are 11-4 and in command of the NFC North. While they've been one of the better clutch teams this season, and Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson draw a lot of attention, the most important part of the team might be the defense.
With such a great season, it's no surprise that there's solid representation for the 2026 NFL Pro Bowl Games. Safety Kevin Byard III, offensive lineman Drew Dalman and Joe Thuney are Bears Pro Bowlers.
But there's a very notable snub, and it's not Williams.
Nahshon Wright, the defensive back who's having an incredible season, is inexplicably a snub. He's such a wild snub that Micah Parsons of the Green Bay Packers called out Wright's absence from the Pro Bowl.
Micah Parsons calls out NFL over 'crazy' Nahshon Wright Pro Bowl snub
"Nashone wright getting snubbed for first team pro bowl selection is crazy!!" Parsons posted on Twitter/X shortly after the Pro Bowl rosters were announced.
Wright is a cornerback, and with only four players making the Pro Bowl, he was left off the roster for four players. Philadelphia Eagles cornerbacks Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean, Seattle Seahawks Devon Witherspoon and Carolina Panthers Jaycee Horn.
Those are all great cornerbacks, but Wright, who's having a remarkable season, shouldn't have been left off the Pro Bowl roster this season.

Wright has five interceptions, one of which he returned for a touchdown. He also has 11 passes defended, two forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries, 67 total tackles, three tackles for loss, one quarterback hit and a passer rating allowed of 80.8.
He's been one of the best cornerbacks at forcing turnovers this season, and while he might not draw the lockdown recognition of some of the other top cornerbacks, he's still more than deserving of this honor.
Parsons, a division rival of Wright, called out the NFL for his snubbing. There aren't many bigger snubs than Wright this season, as the Bears' cornerback is more than deserving of Pro Bowl honors this season.
