Roger Goodell: USA Football will select Olympic team, not the NFL
Our Summary
The NFL has allowed active players to join the 2028 Olympic flag football tournament, but player selection will fall to USA Football, not the NFL. However, the NFL has indirect influence through Commissioner Roger Goodell, who appoints members to USA Football's board. Current discrepancies on USA Football's website regarding board member details and compliance with bylaws have surfaced. As flag football gains Olympic status, USA Football's operations will face increased scrutiny, particularly concerning selection processes and adherence to governance rules.
