The franchise great is playing in the American Flag Football League’s (AFFL) U.S. Open of Football Tournament (USOF), which will make its television debut this Saturday on NFL Network at 7:00 pm EST.
The network will air the USOF playoffs live June 30 through July 19, concluding with the Ultimate Final where the America’s Champion and Pros’ Champion will meet in a winner take-all contest for $1 million.
Among the teams in the tournament include squads captained by former NFL, NBA and Olympic standouts including Michael Vick (Roadrunners), Chad Ochocinco (Ocho), Nate Robinson (Holdat), Carlos Boozer (Holdat) and Michael Johnson (the olympic runner, not he Bengals DE).
