New York Red Bulls Play 'American' Football in Training

"I'm just here so I don't get fined."

Bradley Wright-Phillips has his American Football interview replies down pat.

On Friday, the New York Red Bulls ditched the pitch and instead took to the gridiron, trading the soccer ball for some pigskin.

"We don’t often get some time to rest, and we kind of switched it up a little bit today and it was nice to kind of let loose," Connor Lade said after the game. "Throw a couple touchdowns, throw a couple picks. It was fun."

The grey team jumped out to an early lead, pink rallied back for a win, scoring 28-unanswered points and eventually holding on for the victory.
