The NFL’s Pro Bowl week will look very different this year
Instead of a traditional tackle game, the league announced the four-day event will have a series of skill competitions as well as three flag football games between AFC and NFC players on Feb. 2-5 in Las Vegas.
The number of points from each conference will be incorporated as the starting score in the final flag football game. The winner of the last flag football game will be considered champion of 2023 Pro Bowl Games. In lightning round, both conferences will select 16 players to participate in a three-part elimination challenge, allowing players to put their skills to the test while fielding punts and catching water balloons. The longest drive will consist of four NFC and AFC players competing to see who can drive a golf ball the farthest.
In the first round on Feb. 2, players will show off their best receptions in highlight reels at different venues across Las Vegas. Fans then will vote to determine their favorite catch by a player from each conference, and the players with the highest number of votes will compete in the finals on Feb. 5 in front of a panel of high-profile judges.
