Feb. 6 (UPI) -- Tackling wasn't a part of the revamped 2023 Pro Bowl, but the field of NFL stars didn't exit unscathed. Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett sustained a dislocated toe in the skills competition, the team said.

The Browns said that Garrett injured the toe during the gridiron gauntlet, a skills competition on Sunday at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.

Garrett limped off the field after participating in an obstacle course. He appeared to sustain the injury after climbing over a wall.

The Browns said X-rays on the toe were negative for broken bones.

The NFC beat the AFC 35-33 in the game, the NFL's annual All-Star competition. This year's event featured a trio of flag football games, as well as skills competitions.

Garrett, a four-time Pro Bowl selection, totaled 60 combined tackles, 18 of them for a loss, four passes defensed and two forced fumbles. He matched his career-high from 2021 with 16 sacks through 16 games this season.
