Jonnu Smith to team up with AFC East QB in Pro Bowl competition

Miami Dolphins tight end Jonnu Smith will team up with New England Patriots rookie quarterback Drake Maye in a competition called “Passing the Test” at the 2025 Pro Bowl Games, the NFL announced Wednesday.

In the competition, quarterbacks will try to hit targets at various distances and rack up as many points as possible in 40 seconds. But each passer will get an additional 10 seconds if their teammate can answer a Pro Bowl-themed trivia question correctly.

Maye will hope that Smith knows the rest of the Pro Bowl roster well, because the Dolphins tight end will have a chance to add as many as 50 seconds to the Patriots quarterback’s time limit.

For now, that’s the only game Smith is set to play Thursday night when the Pro Bowl Games air from 7 to 8:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.  Smith is also set to play in the flag football game Sunday that serves as the grand finale of the Pro Bowl Games. Coverage on Sunday is set to start at 3 p.m. ET on ESPN and ABC.

Smith earned Pro Bowl honors for the first time after replacing Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce on the AFC roster. In his first season with the Dolphins, Smith set franchise records for receptions (88), receiving yards (884), and touchdowns (eight) by a tight end.
