Joe Burrow in the Olympics? Is flag football ready for this kind of star power?

Joe Burrow got a hold of Aaron Rodgers‘ diary and is taking all of the pages from it. No, we’re not talking about the fact that Burrow followed Rodgers into the infirmary faster than one can say ‘touchdown!’ This time, Burrow is eyeing the same gridiron glory Rodgers is after. Like their clay court friends, these QBs are ready to play for their country.

Aaron Rodgers mentioned wanting to suit up for the country and play flag football in the Olympics, stating that the growth of football, in recent years, had been ‘exciting‘. “With it being an Olympic sport in 2028 and the potential for the NFL players to get involved, who knows?
