New Orleans Saints left tackle Jammal Brown earn a roster spot to his second Pro Bowl on Wednesday as he was named as an injury replacement for the annual NFL all-star game in Honolulu on Feb. 8.

Brown was named a starter to the 2006 Pro Bowl, but was unable to participate because of an injury. He'll join teammate Drew Brees, who is also making his second trip to the Pro Bowl since being with the Saints. Both players were also named to the All-Pro team in 2006.

Seattle's Walter Jones and Washington's Chris Samuels both will be sidelined because of injuries giving Brown and Dallas' Flozell Adams a trip to Hawaii.
