In the play, Shedeur Sanders lofted a short scoring pass to Bolles, who sold it like a primetime receiver and secured a real touchdown in the Pro Bowl flag football showcase. CBS Sports noted Bolles had been “robbed” earlier on a two-point attempt, making this score feel like a timely make-good for the Broncos veteran.
The moment underscores the Pro Bowl Games’ premise: stars having fun in a real competition that still counts in the score. The flag football format has drawn attention for entertaining, high-energy plays, with the AFC leading 32-14 at one point in the second quarter as the game progressed.
The moment lands amid broader Broncos news back home, where head coach Sean Payton announced offensive staff changes, naming Davis Webb as offensive coordinator and Logan Kilgore as quarterbacks coach. Bolles’ viral TD also aligns with his off-field recognition, as the Broncos announced he was named the 2026 NFLPA Alan Page Community Award winner.
For fans looking to watch, Pro Bowl Games are on ESPN (with coverage on Disney XD and ESPN Deportes), with streaming available on the ESPN App and NFL+, and the event was set for Tuesday, Feb. 3 at 8 p.m. ET at the Moscone Center in San Francisco.
