While Cincinnati Bengals wideouts Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins made the media rounds at the Super Bowl talking about the future with Joe Burow and their future with team in general, fellow wideout Trent Taylor was out there winning a table tennis tournament.
Taylor took part in the P&G Battle of the Paddles table tennis tournament alongside NFL names like Christian McCaffrey, Jared Goff, Trevor Lawrence, Budda Baker and more.
It was Taylor who advanced to the final against McCaffrey and ultimately won, though.
He then hit one of his patented backflip celebrations, as seen in the clip below, and even won a title belt for his efforts:
