“We think it’s a great opportunity… because the player interest is real and palpable,” an NFL executive said Tuesday. Flag football will be an Olympic sport in 2028 in L.A.
Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill carries the ball against Seahawks cornerback Tariq Woolen and Vikings linebacker Za'Darius Smith during the flag football event at the Pro Bowl earlier this year. NEW YORK — The NFL will work with its teams, the NFL Players Association and the relevant governing bodies to attempt clear the way for any interested current or former players to participate in flag football in the Olympics in 2028 in Los Angeles, a top league official said Tuesday.
Not all NFL players necessarily would represent the U.S. There were 113 foreign-born players on NFL rosters as of Week 5, according to O’Reilly. The league will have to work through issues related to players’ contracts and teams’ wariness about players being injured to enable any interested players to compete.
“I think that this proposal … was not predicated on NFL players,” O’Reilly said. “And clearly the athletes in our game are at the highest level of our game. … I think there is desire to work through a process that has NFL players as part of L.A. ’28. But I would never discount the talented flag football players playing that discipline of our sport today at a very high level.”
