What's the deal with everyone opting out this year. This seems like it more opt-outs than usual.

Wonder if they are drained from the longer season, protocols, and just feel in general there’s nothing else to prove or show.

Not sure if having it in Vegas is helping or hurting.

A couple of trends jump out on that list. There’s a bunch of OL and several on the defensive front 7. Also, most of them have multiple Pro Bowls.

The Pro Bowl is glorified flag football. At least the skill positions get to play something that resembles normal football, and most like competing in the skills competitions. They can have some fun.

The linemen just kind of lean on each other during the game. They might enjoy it for a year or two, but most of the guys on the list have been there several times.
