Beckham wins Pro Bowl's bizarre Drone Drop event

Odell Beckham Jr. was making the most difficult catches look easy. What else is new?

Outlasting a number of other receivers and defensive backs, the New York Giants superstar emerged as the champion of the Drone Drop event at the Pro Bowl Skills Showdown on Thursday.

A few other participants were able to stave off elimination as the drone elevation increased, but Miami Dolphins wideout Jarvis Landry failing to haul in his attempt from 125 feet up sealed the win for Beckham and the NFC squad.

It was only fitting for the second receiver-related competition to come down to the two former LSU teammates, as Landry had narrowly beat out Beckham in the Best Hands competition earlier in the day.
