How to Watch the First Ever NFL Pro Bowl Games
Gone is the traditional AFC vs. NFC Pro Bowl game that players didn’t want to participate in and fans didn’t want to watch.
New this season are the 2023 Pro Bowl Games, a two-day festival of football and non-football skills competitions in Las Vegas culminating in three games of 7-on-7 flag football.
Events take place at Intermountain Healthcare Performance Center (the Las Vegas Raiders’ practice facility) and at Allegiant Stadium.
