any reason to bring a RB?

also we should bring the fastest most agile back we can find.

power is irrelevant.

Jets, Reek, Chase and I would add someone like Mike Evans that would be dominate just on height in a lot of matchups.

That is a today roster and will almost certainly change in 4 years.

Only 12 total roster spots. I feel like you need to have a backup QB just in case. So a guy like Taysom Hill seems like a good choice. Can sub in to give your WR’s a breather but also be an emergency QB

Do they play offense and defense?

12 roster spots. But if you have a player or 2 that can play both ways, that gives flexibility to bring a backup QB

I hope flag football doesn’t go the same way as 3x3 basketball

Need multiple DBs in the roster.

It won’t be NFL players but yeah you need:

2QBs
2 pass catching RBs.
4-5WRs
4-5 DBs, 2 of which that can also play O.

I’m guessing those big contracts have clauses for no flag football

If USA can’t send college players and win it something is wrong

I would even think a college fraternity team could win gold

I think the NFL will allow players to participate. The league makes more of an international push each year, and there’s already an ad running with Jalen Hurts for LA28.

I don’t think it will work because flag football is pretty lame, but I expect them to try to make this a big international showcase.

2 QB’s (preferably a backup who can also play other positions if needed)
4 WR
4 CB
1 LB with some speed that can rush and/or play contain against a mobile QB
1 two-way player (Travis Hunter type)

You can replace a WR with a scat back type RB

Nothing is guaranteed. In this situation hopefully we get the very best athletes possible.

imo you will not need NFL guys to compete/win in the olympics, heck the best flag players in the world already reside here and compete in tournaments all year round across the country.

If we take a look at the current Team USA roster for 2024 (yes, there is such a thing), it's comprised of extremely talented and experienced guys that would roll and have rolled every other country's top teams

Team USA already has the best player in the world from NOLA, who is practically a cheat code in 5man

Good we need more events we’d dominate in. Can they cut out some of the diving divisions? What about artistic swimming?
