The Pro Bowl is essentially a game of two-hand touch with the majority of defenders going easy on the offensive players. Most running plays end with a standing scrum and a whistle rather than any player being brought to the ground.
5’8 RB Devonta Freeman made the best tackle at the Pro Bowl
Don't tell that to Falcons running back Devonta Freeman.
At 5'8 and 206 pounds, Freeman is one of the smallest players in the game, and he's usually the one taking those hits, not dishing them out. But, Freeman subbed in to play a little defense and seemed very intent on making his tackle attempt count. Chris Ivory might not have loved that tackle. The Atlanta Falcons might not have loved that tackle. But, football fans who hate the lack of physical play in the Pro Bowl probably loved it.
Leave it to a small running back to make the biggest tackle in the Pro Bowl.
