The Pro Bowl looks a little different after the NFL overhauled the event last year. A half-hearted football game between players uninterested in tackling is no more and its been replaced by a two-day skills competition.
On Thursday, players who were selected by fans, coaches, and their peers, will compete in “Best Catch,” “Precision Passing,” “Closest to the Pin,” “High Stakes,” “Snap Shots,” and “Epic Pro Bowl Dodgeball.”
On Sunday, it’ll be “Kick Tac Toe,” “Move the Chains,” “Gridiron Gauntlet,” “Madden NFL Head-to-Head,” “Tug-of-War,” and “NFL Flag football.”
Among those competing in the events are three Jacksonville Jaguars players: pass rusher Josh Allen, tight end Evan Engram, and long snapper Ross Matiscik.
Here’s how to tune in from home when the AFC and NFC stars compete at the Pro Bowl Games:
