The latest rendition of the Pro Bowl Games isn’t like your grandfather’s Pro Bowl. There isn’t just one game between the NFC and AFC in Hawaii, with the best players in the world putting in 75% effort so as not to get injured before the next season.
This edition of the Pro Bowl features everything from a skills competition to dodgeball to a flag football game, and Puka Nacua is having the time of his life participating in Orlando. He took part in the Best Catch competition, making a sweet grab while wakeboarding.
He also wore a GoPro in practice for a first-person look at what he sees on the field, which was neat. On Saturday, he and Micah Parsons represented the NFC squad in a game of Madden against David Njoku and Tyreek Hill.
Nacua dominated, getting out to a 15-0 lead against Njoku with a couple of picks and even a touchdown thrown to himself in the game.
“Yessirski” was the word of the day for Nacua, who yelled it repeatedly as he and Parsons cruised to an easy win.
Here are some highlights from the Madden matchup.
