Pro Bowl 2022: Date, Time, Venue, Channel & Full List of Players
The 2021-2022 NFL Pro Bowl is all set to make its triumphant return as the official game was canceled last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Of course, the Super Bowl LVI participants, who are the Los Angeles Rams and the Cincinnati Bengals, will have no players participating in the Pro Bowl events as they prepare for the big game to see which team will come home with the Lombardi trophy.
Here's a look at the all-important details concerning the exhibition game, including when and where it will be played, and the participants.

Pro Bowl Venue
Venue: Allegiant Stadium

The 2022 Pro Bowl will be played at Allegiant Stadium, home of the Las Vegas Raiders, in Las Vegas, Nevada. The game was not played last season but the four seasons prior to that, the game was played in Orlando, Florida.
