Unlike past years, the NFL’s 2023 Pro Bowl games received little acclaim from the fans. The league took a different approach, having various skill-presenting contests and a flag football game as the main event. As disputable as the games were, one of Stefon Diggs’ actions during a competition led the NFL fans into a frenzy. They could not hold back their reactions on Twitter.
During the Best Catch competition, AFC contender Stefon Diggs huddled up for the challenge. In an awkward-looking move, the Buffalo Bills WR made a bizarre beginning to it, which raised eyebrows. Diggs is an exceptional athlete, but the receiver’s position looked rather weird.
Did Stefon Diggs get cheeky enough?

Stefon Diggs needed to make an impressive and fashionable grab to help the AFC win the Pro Bowl title. He began his round by crouching behind the NFL cheerleaders. The ladies faced the mat where the contestants had to land while making their catch. The cheerleaders clambered away from Diggs as he made the sprint. He then bounced on a trampoline through the smoke to retrieve two balls. But the effort failed. As per AP News, the NFC outpaced them and won the Pro Bowl.

If Stefon Diggs had a bizarre moment, Justin Jefferson had a crazy 1v1 moment while going undercover.
