A. J. Brown is a star in the NFL. He plays for the Eagles and is known for his skills in tackle football. Recently, he shared his thoughts on the idea of playing flag football in the Olympics. The Olympics are set to happen during the NFL training camp. This timing is a big issue for Brown.

Brown met with reporters. He was clear about his priorities. He said, "The Olympics are during our training camp. That would be tough. It would be fun to compete, but not for me. I need to focus on my main job. " He knows that fans and the media would not be happy if he missed camp. So, he chose to keep his focus on the NFL.

Many NFL players face this dilemma. They must decide if they want to miss important training time for the Olympics. The NFL and USA Football will find enough players to participate. However, not all will be willing to distract themselves from their main goal.

The Olympics are a big deal. They offer a chance to compete on a global stage. But for NFL players, the season is their top priority. They train hard and play even harder. Missing out on training could affect their performance. This is a tough choice for many athletes.

The Olympics will have 12 NFL players, with up to six alternates. This means only a few will get to experience the Olympics. The rest will stay focused on their NFL careers. It is a tough decision, but many will choose their main job over the Olympic dream.
