Rosters for the 2012 Pro Bowl are set to be announced on NFL Network Tuesday night.
Dec 27, 2011 - The 2012 Pro Bowl rosters will be released on Tuesday evening at 7:00 p.m. (ET) and if the fans' vote is any indication you can expect to see a lot of Green Bay Packers on the team. The Packers had nine players leading their position in the fans' vote including OT Chad Clifton, who hadn't played since Week 5. It's obvious the Packers have a lot of fans across the country.
In the fans voting, Aaron Rodgers was the overall vote-getter followed by Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Calvin Johnsonand Wes Welker. Jared Allen was the top defensive vote-getter and Devin Hester was tops on special teams.
The rosters will be released on NFL Network Tuesday night which will tell us who will be playing in Honolulu on January 29th. The Pro Bowl comes in between the conference championship games and the Super Bowl which means the Super Bowl participants won't be playing.
The final Pro Bowl voting is split equally between the vote from the fans, players and coaches.
Here's a look at the final tally of the fan voting, which counts as one-third of the results:

Wait this tuesday as in today?
Before the final game is even finished?
