Celebrating his time with some of the NFL’s best at the 2024 Pro Bowl in Orlando, Arizona Cardinals safety Budda Baker made his presence felt during flag football.
Even though the NFC were both down by 11, 33-22, and just scored on by the AFC, Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud went or two extra points, but threw right into the arms of the Cards’ only representative.
With 3:09 remaining before halftime, Baker leaped up and stole the ball in the end zone to negate further damage towards the NFC squad.
Baker came close to another takeaway, but as pass by Indianapolis Colts QB Gardner Minshew was too high enough for him to reach.
Overall, the NFC crushed the skills competition portion to overrule the flag football defeat, awarding them their second consecutive Pro Bowl victory, 64-59.
Up next on the NFL’s docket, Super Bowl LVIII between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers on Feb. 11.
