NFL players to make return appearance on 'Celebrity Family Feud'

The NFL will be making a prime-time appearance sooner than anticipated.

A handful of current football players will be competing against a set of retired players in an episode of "Celebrity Family Feud" set to air on Sunday at 8 p.m. ET.

The "NFLPA All Stars" team features Pittsburgh Steelers running back Le'Veon Bell, Arizona Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson, Houston Texans receiver DeAndre Hopkins, Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Derrick Johnson, and Cleveland Browns fan favorite Joe Thomas.

They will compete against "NFLPA Legends" Marshall Faulk, Andre Reed, Anthony Munoz, Rod Woodson, and Derrick Brooks.

Both sides will be competing to win $25,000 for the Professional Athletes Foundation or Active Minds charities.
