What time is the Pro Bowl 2022 Skills Showdown?
The 2022 Pro Bowl will take place this upcoming Sunday afternoon, just a week before the Super Bowl. One of the more exciting events of the weekend, the Skills Competition will take place tonight.
The events in the challenge will showcase some of the best and brightest talents in the NFL.
While all of the athletes are competitive, it's also a chance for them to have some fun and play alongside some of their competitors. The game and skills competition didn't take place in 2021 due to COVID-19 concerns and a virtual game was held in its place.
Now it's back and being held in Las Vegas, Nevada for the first time ever.
The Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals players will not participate in the events this weekend as they prepare to face off in the Super Bowl on February 13, 2022 at SoFi Stadium.
