The NFL intends to launch professional flag football leagues for men and women in the next few years. This initiative aligns with the sport's inclusion in the 2028 Summer Olympics.
Commissioner Roger Goodell stated the league has seen strong interest in creating these leagues. He highlighted the potential for growth through youth, high school, and college participation.
The NFL plans to expand its international schedule, including a game in Australia next season. Asia is the next target region for global expansion, though no specific location has been confirmed.
