The Pro Bowl will look a little different this year.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the NFL Pro Bowl was called off this year, but the league got creative with its workaround partnering with EA Sports - they're taking it online and into the virtual world.

Current and former NFL players, along with celebrities, will be competing with Pro Bowl rosters in the Madden NFL 21 video game which will be aired on the EA Madden NFL Twitch channel, the NFL's YouTube, Twitter and Facebook platforms and it will also be streamed on NFL Network.

Jerseys have started arriving at players houses so they're outfitted for the occasion.

 

They've also been working out for the big day.
