Olympic legend and multiple world record-holder Usain Bolt may have retired from track and field, but he’s willing to consider another career that would utilize his talents. Bolt admitted he would consider playing in the NFL, but only for two teams.

Which two teams is the 33-year-old Bolt willing to join? The New England Patriots or the Green Bay Packers, according to TMZ.

Bolt told TMZ, “If the Patriots or Aaron Rodgers call me. If they call me, I'm ready!"

While I find the this idea quite interesting... it's hard for me to believe this as anything other than hype and trying to stay relative, as I don't believe Bolt is even eligible to sign with any team.

Cus I believe any player must first be eligible for a draft, before they can be eligible to sign...

Plus who knows if he can catch an oval ball, must less deal with potential contact and impacts.

several track stars have tried to make a go of it in the NFL. They don't succeed.

I love Usain Bolt. Seeing him in the Green and Gold? Wow. Not sure if he could take a hit. Sure he is fast, but somebody is eventually going to smack him on his ass.
