NFL Pro Bowl live score, updates, highlights from 2026 AFC vs. NFC flag football game

JUMP TO: 

As Super Bowl 60 approaches, the NFL’s top athletes prepare to showcase their skills at the 2026 Pro Bowl Games.

Since 2023, the NFL has converted its annual Pro Bowl from a traditional padded game to a format featuring flag football and skill challenges. This change aims to enhance player safety and boost the enjoyment of participating players.

Another change in the NFL is the integration of Super Bowl week with the Pro Bowl. The 2026 Pro Bowl has been scheduled as part of the Super Bowl festivities, with all events now occurring on Tuesday, February 3. Historically, the game was played on weekends, typically Saturdays or Sundays, but this year it will take place on a Tuesday evening. 

Leading the NFC roster are Puka Nacua, Bijan Robinson, and Christian McCaffrey, while James Cook, Ja’Marr Chase, and Jonathan Taylor top the AFC lineup. The events are set for Tuesday, February 3.

The Sporting News provides live scores, updates, and highlights of the 2026 AFC vs. NFC flag football game.
