There was no blocking or tackling in this year’s 2023 Pro Bowl though it’s hardly a departure from the past few years, leading the NFL to change this year’s format to a true 7v7 flag football event. Sunday, the NFC came out on top, winning 33-27.
The only Steeler to participate in the game was FS Minkah Fitzpatrick, forced to try and defend in this wide-open environment. His day was relatively uneventful, “giving up” a touchdown to Dallas Cowboys’ WR CeeDee Lamb in the left corner of the end zone though he didn’t try too hard to contest it in this padless event.
