Cincinnati Bengals receiver Ja'Marr Chase was playing defensive back for the AFC squad during the first quarter of the 2026 Pro Bowl Games Feb. 3 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco when he intercepted a Jared Goff pass near the end zone and ran it back the length of the 50-yard field for a touchdown.

"That is outrageous!" Jason Kelce said during ESPN's broadcast. "Are you kidding me?"

Chase followed the score with a backflip in the end zone.

Moments earlier, Chase broke up a Goff pass near the goal line.

"There's Chase making a play!" Scott Van Pelt said during the broadcast.

"Wait, he's playing safety now?" Dan Orlovsky said earlier in ESPN's broadcast.

The games were billed as a celebration of player skills highlighted by a flag football game between the AFC and NFC.

Chase, a 1,000-yard receiver in each of his five seasons with the Bengals, was among players picked by fellow NFL players for their U.S. Olympic flag football team, according to The Athletic.

Chase and former Bengals wide receiver AJ Green are the only players in team history to be selected to the Pro Bowl in each of their first five seasons in the league.

In 2024, Chase won the first receiving triple crown in team history.
