The Miami Dolphins today announced the addition of defensive tackle Randy Starks to the AFC Pro Bowl roster. Starks will be joining defensive end Cameron Wake, long snapper John Denney, and guard Richie Incognito in Honolulu. This is Starks' second Pro Bowl.

Miami Dolphins defensive tackle Randy Starks has been added to the 2013 Pro Bowl. Starks joins the AFC roster as a replacement for New England Patriots defensive tackle Vince Wilfork, who had to pull out of the game due to injury.

Starks will join defensive end Cameron Wake, long snapper John Denney, and guard Richie Incognito in the NFL's annual all-star game. The Dolphins' four Pro Bowlers ties them with the Cincinnati Bengals for fifth highest total in the conference. The Houston Texans lead the AFC with nine players selected to the game; the San Francisco 49ers also had nine players selected on the NFC side, although their players will not be participating in the game due to the team making the Super Bowl.
