Although, Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson will not be playing in tonight’s Pro Bowl due to a sore Achilles tendon that doesn’t mean he didn’t make the trip out to the islands.

Johnson decided to charter a private plane and the rest of the Lions wide receivers came with him to relax in the sun and keep him company during the week:

The group includes regulars Nate Burleson, Stefan Logan and Maurice Stovall and practice-squad receivers Marcus Harris and Nate Hughes, among others. Logan tweeted that the group was flying out of Los Angeles via private jet

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Roddy White will be replacing Johnson on the NFC Pro Bowl roster.
