2023 Pro Bowl Games Rosters: AFC, NFC Lineups for Each Event
This week the NFL’s first-ever Pro Bowl Games will be featured on ESPN, and on Wednesday, all the competitions and its competitors were announced. Events start Thursday at 7 p.m. ET with five skills challenges, and the games will conclude at 3 p.m. Sunday with more skills events and a trio of flag football games.
Peyton Manning will coach the AFC team while Eli Manning will coach the NFC. The goal of the skill competition is to accumulate points for your conference, and you get points by winning competitions. The conference with the most points at the end of the weekend will be crowned the winner of the inaugural Pro Bowl Games. Here are the events and its competitors:
Best Catch Competition (First round Thursday; finale Sunday)
This competition will include two wide receivers in each conference squaring off to see who can perform the most impressive and creative pass catches. Thursday’s first round will see highlight reels from players shot at iconic venues around Las Vegas, and then, fans will vote online whose catches were best. The event starts at 7 p.m. ET.

Lightning Round (Thursday)

Finally, the remaining players from each conference will take aim at targets attached to a bucket hanging over the head of an opposing coach. The first team to dump a bucket on a coach wins.
