Pro Bowl 2017 live stream: How to watch online

It’s that time of year again, folks. The top players from the NFC and AFC will collide to see which conference is superior. This is the first time since 2012 in which the Pro Bowl will be played under the conference-based format.

You may not see players deliver big hits in this game, but you will get to watch exotic play calls and fancy celebrations. Coaches and players will try to get creative and leave fans in awe.

The NFL’s all-star game, our last chance to watch football before Super Bowl LI, will air at 8 p.m. ET Sunday night on ESPN, with a live stream available at WatchESPN. Unlike previous years, the game will not be held in Hawaii. This year, it will be played at Camping World Stadium in Orlando.

Although many players voted into the Pro Bowl won’t participate, there are big names who will still take the field Sunday night.

Tom Brady, Antonio Brown, and Le’Veon Bell won’t suit up for the AFC, but Philip Rivers (in his last game as a San Diego Charger), Jarvis Landry, and Jay Ajayi could still make plays.

And don’t forget about Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and Raiders punter Marquette King, who will surely entertain us in some fashion — perhaps a dance-off?

Last year, Von Miller couldn’t play in the Pro Bowl because he was getting ready for the Super Bowl, and he would go on to win Super Bowl MVP. This time around, with the Broncos missing out on the playoffs, Miller gets a chance to shine in a game that no one takes too seriously.

This year, players such as Tom Brady and his Patriots teammates Devin McCourty and Dont’a Hightower, along with Matt Ryan, Julio Jones, and Devonta Freeman of the Falcons, are getting ready for their Super Bowl matchup.

Two Super Bowl winners will captain the AFC team: Jerome Bettis and Ray Lewis. For the NFC, it’ll be Charles Woodson and Tony Gonzalez.

Aaron Rodgers, Larry Fitzgerald, and David Johnson won’t play for the NFC, but the leading vote-getter at running back is all ready to go. Cowboys rookie Ezekiel Elliott was nothing short of amazing in his first season. His blend of power, speed, and agility was on full display as he ran for a league-high 1,631 yards.

There are star players at wide receiver, too. Doug Baldwin will replace Fitzgerald, and Dez Bryant will also play in the Pro Bowl as Jones’s replacement. New York Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr., who showed off his incomparable one-handed catching abilities in the Pro Bowl Skills Showdown, will also bring the fireworks.

The NFC will be coached by the Cowboys staff, while the Chiefs staff will oversee the AFC team.

While this matchup will be competitive, it’s all about having fun. With a new location, a new format, and big personalities, the Pro Bowl could be entertaining this year.
