I dont think I can get excite about flag football. After watching full contact all my life it would just seem too watered-down.

I hated flag football in gym class back in grade school. Can't see it being any better today.

Defensive players can get plenty of flag football practice by playing against the Kansas City Chiefs.

It's gonna look pretty boring compared to Rugby 7s.
Don't understand they dropped Boxing for 2028. I always considered Boxing a core olympic sport.

This will be a good develomemtal step to transition all NFL QBs into a flag only non contact postion beginning in 2029.

Never forgot that the NFL hates @AndyMarquisLive and actively works to piss him off. By extension they also must hate the Jacksonville Jaguars and Trevor Lawrence. Allowing TL five more targeted years before going to inevitable new rule serves the purpose.
