The NFL’s annual all-star game won’t take place on the field, but 25 former SEC football players have been designated “2021 Pro Bowl” selections.
The on-field game, originally scheduled for Jan. 31 at Allegiant Stadium near the Las Vegas Strip, was canceled in October. This year’s “Pro Bowl” will instead be a week of virtual matchups featuring celebrities, NFL Legends, current players and streamers playing the official Pro Bowl rosters on Madden NFL 21 video game.
The rosters were recently revealed and 25 former SEC players (plus old friends like Kyler Murray) were named to the rosters for the virtual game. The AFC led the way with the first 15 selections in a reveal sorted by position each group for each conference.
