Miami's Surtain out, Madison in at Pro Bowl

MIAMI (Jan. 30, 2003) -- Miami Dolphins cornerback Patrick Surtain dropped out of the Pro Bowl because of a knee injury and was replaced by teammate Sam Madison.
The undisclosed injury gives Madison a fourth consecutive trip to the Pro Bowl. Madison had 31 tackles and three interceptions last season, a year in which he criticized himself for not playing to his standards.

Surtain, making his first Pro Bowl, had been a starter for the game. Instead, Houston's Aaron Glenn and New England's Ty Law will start for the AFC squad. Madison will be the lone reserve at cornerback.

Madison's addition to the AFC squad gives the Dolphins seven players in the Pro Bowl, including defensive tackle Tim Bowens, safety Brock Marion, linebacker Zach Thomas and running back Ricky Williams.
