Architects of Team USA’s squad say they ‘salivate with the athleticism that could … be in the pool’ for 2028 debut
Any NFL stars who are truly serious about joining the US’s national flag football team when the sport debuts as an Olympic discipline at the 2028 Los Angeles Summer Games will get their opportunity – but they will need to submit to what could shape up to be a trials process like no other, according to those in charge of picking the squad.
Scott Hallenbeck and Eric Mayes of flag’s American governing body, USA Football, told the Guardian in a recent interview that they are as excited as anybody to explore fielding NFL talent at the Olympics in a manner the NBA has done for the US since the 1992 Dream Team.
