How does the NFL Pro Bowl voting work? Jalen Hurts, Jaylen Waddle tipped to get maiden Pro Bowl starts
Jalen Hurts and Jaylen Waddle are two of the NFL's young stars who are having a great 2022-2023 season. Pro Bowl voting has officially started and will last through Dec. 15. There will be no traditional Pro Bowl game this year and a week-long "Pro Bowl Games" will be held in Las Vegas in its place.
The "Pro Bowl Games" will consist of NFC versus AFC football and non-football competitions and culminate with a seven-on-seven flag football game with the Pro Bowl players on Feb. 5. Fans can vote as frequently as they'd like on numerous online platforms such as NFL.com and their favorite team's website.
People can also vote right on Twitter from Dec. 1-15 by tweeting a player's first and last name, tagging the player's official Twitter handle, or making a hashtag with their first and last name. All three of these methods must encompass the hashtag: #ProBowlVote.
Another method is to use a cell phone and text VOTE to 635635 for more information on how to vote.
Player selections will be decided by the consensus votes of fans, players, and coaches, with each group's vote calculated as one-third. The NFL is the only league that merges voting by fans, coaches, and players to choose its Pro Bowl teams.
NFL players and coaches will record their votes on Friday, Dec. 16. Tickets for the Pro Bowl Games go on sale Thursday, Dec. 1.
