Rather than the traditional football game with full pads and NFL rules, the Texans participants will instead play in a 7-on-7 flag football game.

It's Pro Bowl time again as the Super Bowl approaches, and this year the NFL returns to Las Vegas. But things will look a little different, as the Pro Bowl has been reimagined.

The multi-day AFC vs. NFC competition kicked off on Thursday with the top NFL Pro Bowl players competing in an also reimagined skills challenge. And on Sunday, the actual game itself occurs, but like the rest of the weekend, it also will look very different.

Rather than the traditional football game with full pads and NFL rules, the participants will instead play in a 7-on-7 flag football game.

The Houston Texans have one starter in the weekend festivities in offensive lineman Laremy Tunsil.

Tunsil will appear in this third Pro Bowl, and per Pro Football Focus earned a 91.3 pass block rating this season. That's good enough for first among all NFL offensive linemen.

More impressively, again, per PFF, Tunsil surrendered just one sack all season.

The Texans also have four players to be named as alternates, defensive lineman Jerry Hughes, running back Dameon Pierce, kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn, and punter Cameron Johnson.
