The 2017 Pro Bowl is finally upon us. Get the final starting rosters, location, start time, and much more.

After another incredible regular season, the 2017 Pro Bowl has arrived. The top players at every position will battle against each other in typical AFC vs NFC fashion. Sure, the game isn’t as fun as it used to be and it’s hard for any diehard football fan to get super excited for this game, but to see your favorite stars on the gridiron for one last time makes it all worth it.

This year, the Pro Bowl will go back to the traditional format of AFC vs NFC and not the confusing “unconferenced” style that was the case over the past few years. Voting took place by fans and the best of the best made the cut.

Taking place in Orlando, Florida, it will be broadcasted live on ESPN on Sunday, January 29th, 2017 at 8:00 P.M. ET. If you can’t tune it, it will be streamed live on WatchESPN. If anything, plenty of NFL legends will be in attendance to make the event at least worth tuning into. Who wouldn’t want to see Ray Lewis offer defensive tips or Jerome Bettis breakdown rushing lanes and gaps?
