The Pro Bowl has been a mainstay on the NFL’s calendar since 1951. But that time has finally come to an end.
On Monday morning, the NFL announced the transition from their annual all-star game to a new week-long skills competition dubbed the “Pro Bowl Games” which will be capped with a flag football game that will still feature those players who are selected to represent their teams as the best of the best in the NFL. The competition will still be AFC competing against the NFC in a laundry list of competitions that pit both their skills on and off the field in what they describe as “fun” and “memorable” ways.
