$700m quarterback could be an Olympian after NFL gives stars green light

However, only one player from each NFL team will be allowed to try out for the US team, which means some players may choose to represent a country of their heritage if it improves their chances of an Olympic debut.
Jefferson was present for the NFL’s announcement on Wednesday, and said he always thought an Olympic appearance was unattainable.
“To be honest, I’m just at a loss [for] words,” he said. “Seeing the amount of kids that are really involved in this sport, seeing the women and men being involved, and seeing it now being on a global stage is something that is so special.
“Even though it’s three years down the line, and they’re still planning who is going to be on the team and all, but just to think about the chances of playing in an Olympics and getting a gold medal is a dream.
