Hooper has 61 catches for 660 yards and six touchdowns in 11 games this season. Jones, who has started all 14 games, is second on the team in tackles with 104.

Center Alex Mack was also selected as an alternate along with special teamers Josh Harris and Kenjon Barner. The five players could join receiver Julio Jones and defensive lineman Grady Jarrett, who were named to the Pro Bowl team earlier this week, in the NFC-AFC matchup Jan. 26 in Orlando.
