The 11 skills challenges are worth three points apiece for a total of 33 available. Points from the flag football game on Sunday will be added to Thursday’s score to determine the winner between the competing AFC and NFC sides.

“The Big Spike” pits lineman spiking the football for power and impact.

The AFC participants are OL Rashawn Slater (Chargers) and Joel Bitonio (Browns) and DL Quinnen Williams (Jets). The NFC participants are OL Chris Lindstrom (Falcons) and Frank Ragnow (Lions) and DL Dexter Lawrence (Giants).

“Helmet Harmony” tests players knowledge of their NFL teammates.

The AFC participants: Cameron Heyward and Miles Killebrew of the Steelers; Dion Dawkins and Connor McGovern of the Bills; and Marlon Humphrey and Kyle Hamilton of the Ravens.

The NFC participants: Vita Vea and Tristan Wirfs of the Buccaneers; Jonathan Greenard and Brian O’Neill of the Vikings; and Rashan Gary and Xavier McKinney of the Packers.

“Dodgeball” features four teams of seven players and has a total of six points available.

AFC players: Jeffrey Simmons (Titans), Logan Cooke (Jaguars), Ronnie Stanley (Ravens), Chris Boswell (Steelers), Joe Mixon (Texans), Isaac Seumalo (Steelers), Tyler Linderbaum (Ravens), Patrick Queen (Steelers), Quenton Nelson (Colts), Zaire Franklin (Colts), Brian Thomas Jr. (Jaguars), James Cook (Bills), Ross Matiscik (Jaguars) and Trey Hendrickson (Bengals).

“Punt Perfect” tests the punting accuracy of a one punter and one non-punter from each conference. AFC: Cooke (punter) and Humphrey. NFC: Fox (punter) and Juszczyk.

The Madden NFL 25 Competition features the AFC’s James and Thomas, and the NFC’s Jefferson and Parsons.
