Colts’ Quenton Nelson to partake in Pro Bowl Skills Competition

Quenton Nelson gets to show off his skills at the Pro Bowl.

The brass for the Indianapolis Colts may be in Mobile scouting the Senior Bowl but left guard Quenton Nelson will be in Florida partaking in the Pro Bowl and the week’s events leading up to it.

Before the All-Star game takes place on Sunday afternoon, several Pro Bowlers from each conference will be taking part in the Skills Competition on Thursday.

Nelson is among the competitors for the AFC as both sides have to have an offensive lineman take part in the competition.

It isn’t clear which games Nelson will be featured in. It’s likely he will be a part of the “Gridiron Gauntlet,” which is essentially a five-man relay race. He’s also going to be competing in the dodgeball game at the end of the event.

Nelson enjoyed another incredible season leading the Colts offensive line. This is the second season in a row that he’s earned a Pro Bowl and First-Team All-Pro nod.

The Pro Bowl Skills Competition will air at 9:00 p.m. ET on ESPN and can be streamed on WatchESPN.
