The Las Vegas Raiders had three players picked for the Pro Bowl, the league announced today.

And those three players — wide receiver Davante Adams, defensive end Maxx Crosby and running back Josh Jacobs — have arguably been the league’s best players at their position all season.

It was the sixth Pro Bowl nod for Adams, who has 86 receptions for 1,275 yards and 12 touchdowns through 14 games in his maiden season with the Silver and Black.

Jacobs, who earned his second Pro Bowl selection, is leading the league in rushing with 1,495 yards on 291 carries with 11 touchdowns.

Crosby, who last season was the Pro Bowl’s Most Valuable Player, ranks second in the league in tackles (77), third in sacks (11.5), first in tackles for loss (19) and first in forced fumbles (3).

The event is Feb. 5 at Allegiant Stadium.
