And Tyreek Hill has already been interested to be in it.



"You know how amazing it would be to assemble a super-team to play in the Olympics?" Hill said. "That would be crazy. To be able to go to the Olympics and actually win a medal."



...



"Just being able to say, 'Hey, I was able to play on the Olympic level and compete for a medal for the U.S.' That would be special," he said. "Who wouldn't want to do that? Travel to L.A. and compete in a flag championship. I think it would be so dope if other NFL players buy into that.



"If they're serious about bringing flag football, sign me up. Sign the Cheetah up."




USA is gonna Dream Team the event to set the standard. India may send their own dream team for cricket as well.
