Steelers WR Diontae Johnson Cardinals

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson helped convert a two-point conversion for the AFC in the second quarter of the Pro Bowl, Sunday afternoon.

Johnson faced up with Philadelphia Eagles cornerback, Darius Slay, on the outside. He cut inside of Slay to get open in the end zone  and New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones hit him with a pass to get the two-point conversion. This made the score 22-13 with 14:48 remaining in the second quarter.

The two-point conversion was after a touchdown started by Steelers outside linebacker, T.J. Watt. Watt forced a fumble on Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins, which Cleveland Browns defensive lineman Myles Garrett picked up and ran back for a touchdown.

The AFC defeated the NFC 41-35 in the Pro Bowl, making it their fifth straight win for the AFC in the contest.
