Former Mariposa High offensive lineman Logan Mankins was one of 52 players and two coaches selected to the NFL’s 2010s All-Decade Team on Monday.

Mankins, who played collegiately at Fresno State, was a seven-time Pro Bowl honoree and played with the New England Patriots from 2005-13 before spending his last two seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He retired in March 2016.

He was a first-team All-Pro in 2010 and made the second-team five times.

The San Francisco 49ers had four honorees: Running back Frank Gore, offensive lineman Joe Staley, linebacker Patrick Willis, and defensive back Richard Sherman.

Former Raiders punter Shane Lechler made the list as well.
