The NFL community was waiting eagerly for the Pro Bowl last night at Allegiant Stadium to raise the hype for the Super Bowl next week.
This season’s annual Pro Bowl featured a handful of familiar stars; even the replacements had to face stiff competition to achieve the honor. The fans got their fair share of entertainment, and the game didn’t disappoint either.
However, the Buffalo Bills’ star wide receiver Stefon Diggs might have taken it too far.
The Bills featured eight players in this season’s Pro Bowl, but the star quarterback didn’t participate due to an elbow injury. And it’s possible that’s why the WR wanted to make a slick move, but it was bounced back.
What did Stefon Diggs do at the Pro Bowl?
The Bills WR wanted to do something iconic during the pregame catch competition, but it turned out to be a cheap weird gesture. Stefon took a knee behind a gathering of cheerleaders and wore an eye mask to look cool. However, his crouching behind a group of cheerleaders didn’t produce anything the fans wanted.

From the huddle of cheerleaders, the 29-year-old started his run toward a trampoline and attempted to catch two bowls through the smoke. But after a while, he realized that wasn’t his forte anymore; perhaps the cheerleaders distracted him.
The NFL Pro Bowl is a circus. Clown show. Foolishness. Stefon Diggs is jumping on a trampoline trying to catch two footballs through smoke.
Roger Goodell is the worst commissioner in sports.

Diggs scored 11 touchdowns and accumulated 1429 yards with 13.2 yards per reception, which propelled him into the Pro Bowl. This is his third consecutive pro appearance for the Bills since he joined the franchise in 2020.
Stefon was previously drafted 146th overall by the Minnesota Vikings in the 2015 NFL Draft and spent four years with the team before joining the Buffalo Bills. He won the PFWA all-rookie team medal for the Vikings, but his talent came to notice during his Bills tenure, where he became the NFL receptions leader and receiving yards leader in 2020.
