In season, Jordan Poyer is All-Pro Po. Once the season ends, the Buffalo Bills safety is Golf Pro Po and he showed why at the NFL’s Pro Bowl Games on Thursday night.
The longest drive, the third event of the Pro Bowl Games, saw the AFC dominating the competition until the NFC’s final contestant, Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson, crushed a drive 316 yards to give his conference the lead.
That put the pressure back on Poyer, the final contestant for the AFC.
Apparently the AFC knew what it was doing by saving their best for last. Before taking his swings, Poyer told the ESPN cameras that he has an offseason handicap of three.
After two drives that failed to beat Hockenson’s drive, Poyer had one final swing and he made the most of it. Poyer crushed his final drive a whopping 320 yards to win the competition. You can view Poyer’s drive below.
Poyer winning the competition extended the AFC’s lead to 9-0 after the conference also won the precision passing competition and lightning round competition.
The NFC would go on to win the final event of the evening, dodgeball. Heading into Sunday, the AFC holds a 9-3 lead. Sunday’s events will include Kick Tac Toe, Gridiron Gauntlet, Move the Chains and the finals of Best Catch (3 points each). After those games have concluded, there will be three flag football games with the first two matchups counting for six points each.
