This year's Pro Bowl Games — the second of its kind — will take place in Orlando, Florida, with the multi-day competition kicking off Thursday night with various skills challenges pitting AFC players against those from the NFC.
On Sunday, the Pro Bowl Games conclude, highlighted by 7-on-7 AFC-NFC flag football at Camping World Stadium.
Players voted to the Pro Bowl Games from the two Super Bowl 58 teams — the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers — will not be participating. The NFC champion 49ers had a league-leading nine players voted to the Pro Bowl, while the AFC champion Chiefs had five.
Who are the 2024 Pro Bowl Games coaches?
Peyton Manning and Eli Manning will serve as coaches for the inaugural Pro Bowl Games. Peyton will coach the AFC team, with Eli serving as the NFC coach. The Manning brothers also were head coaches for last year's Pro Bowl Games.

What are the Pro Bowl Games skill challenge events?
Precision Passing (Thursday): Each of the conference's three quarterbacks will battle it out in a one-minute accuracy competition, as they attempt to accumulate points by hitting as many targets as possible. Targets range from either static or those attached to robotic dummies or drones. The conference with the highest cumulative score among all participants earns three points.
Best Catch (Thursday): This event will be pre-taped at landmarks around Orlando. One player from each conference will compete in a best catch competition, showing off their creativity, inventiveness and talent. Fans will vote online to determine their favorite catch by a player in each conference, and the player with the highest number of votes will earn three points for his conference.
Closest to the Pin (Thursday): This golf accuracy competition features six players from each conference attempting to hit a ball as close to the hole as possible. The winner will earn three points for his conference.
High Stakes (Thursday): Starting off with a football in hand, each player will attempt to catch punts from a JUGS machine. The players that succeed in catching the football without dropping others will advance to the next round and attempt to catch an additional football. The most sure-handed player who catches the most footballs wins.
Kick-Tac-Toe (Thursday): Each conference’s kicker will compete in a giant Tic-Tac-Toe competition. The first kicker to complete a connecting line of three squares or hit five squares total will be declared the winner and earn three points for his conference.
Dodgeball (Thursday): A multi-round tournament featuring four teams of five players. In the first match, the AFC offense will face the NFC defense, and in the second game the NFC offense squares off against the AFC defense. The winner will earn three points for their conference.
Madden NFL head-to-head (Sunday): Two players from each conference will play Madden NFL 24 using the official 2024 Pro Bowl Games rosters. The winning team will earn their conference three points.
Gridiron Gauntlet (Sunday): Six players from each conference will complete on an obstacle course, breaking through walls, crawling under doors en route to a final sled that will be pushed across the field. The winning team will earn their conference three points.
Tug-of-War (Sunday): This will be a five-on-five competition positioned above a foam pit. The competition will be best of three, and the winner who pulls the opposing team across the marker twice gains three points.
Move the Chains (Sunday): Two teams of five offensive and defensive linemen will work together to move 3,000 pounds of weights off a massive wall and be the first team to pull that 2,000-pound wall across the finish line. The winner will earn three points for their conference.
