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.

    dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
