The NFC defeated the AFC 66-52 in the 2026 Pro Bowl flag football on Tuesday evening in San Francisco.
Jerry Rice coached the NFC team with Steve Young coaching an AFC squad that featured five Denver Broncos players: wide receiver Courtland Sutton, left tackle Garett Bolles, defensive lineman Zach Allen, outside linebacker Nik Bonitto and cornerback Pat Surtain.
Bolles stole the show, although it came in a losing effort.
In the first quarter, Bolles — who played as an eligible center — caught a two-point conversion, but the score was nullified by a flag for an illegal forward pass (it was close). Later, after a Sutton catch got the ball down to the one-yard line, Bolles caught a touchdown pass from Shedeur Sanders (and there was no foul this time).
Bolles also caught a one-point conversion pass from Joe Burrow in the second quarter.

In a sideline interview, Bolles said his goal was to score four touchdowns.
Just before halftime, Sutton took a lateral and dove into the end zone for a would-be touchdown, but he was ruled down just short of the goal line. Sutton ended the game with two receptions for 37 yards.
