NFL Pro Bowl 2013: Game Preview and Tram Rosters

As if anyone really gives a crap about the NFL's most meaningless football game. But just in case, here are the basic facts and the official rosters for both the AFC and NFC teams.

Kent Nishimura

For the fourth year in a row, the NFL Pro Bowl will take place the week before the Super Bowl in Honolulu, Hawaii at Aloha Stadium. Kickoff for the NFL All-Star Game is set for 7:00pm ET this Sunday, January 27th and will be aired on NBC.

The 43-man teams are comprised of 21 offensive and 17 defensive players plus five specialists, including a long snapper. The AFC All-Star team will be led by John Fox and the coaches from the Denver Broncos while Mike McCarthy and the Green Bay Packers' coaching staff will guide the NFC Pro Bowl squad for the second consecutive year.

Under terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement, each player on the winning Pro Bowl team receives $50,000, while each player on the losing squad earns $25,000.

Get prepared by looking over the full AFC and NFC team rosters below.
