2024 NFL Pro Bowl Skills Showdown Challenges
With the NFL trying to get more creative with their Pro Bowl activities, they have cranked out the competitiveness with the game’s best players with unique challenges to compete in.
- Precision Passing: Quarterbacks from each conference will test their accuracy by trying to hit as many targets as possible within a minute. The QB with the highest score wins.
- Best Catch: One player from each conference will have to emulate a pre-recorded catch, and fans will get the chance to vote on whose catch was the best.
- Closest to the Pin: In something that is not football-related at all, in this event, six players from either conference will attempt to hit a golf ball as close to the hole as possible, with the closest to the pin getting the win for their conference.
- High Stakes: This is a multi-round contest where players will have to make catches from several punts.
- Dodgeball: What has turned into the highlight of the Pro Bowl games of the years, this competition game features four teams of five players, with a mixture of offensive and defensive players taking part in the event. Which conference will reign supreme in a highly contested battle of a schoolyard classic we all grew up playing?
- Kick-Tac-Toe: Each kicker from both the NFC and AFC conferences will kick the ball toward a tic-tac-toe board to get three symbols horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. A player who can hit five symbols before that will also be considered a winner.
