Would it be possible for Bronny James, son of LeBron James, to try his hand at a sport other than basketball? As many NBA fans are probably aware, Bronny is the eldest son of the player who finished his career as the all-time scoring leader in the NBA. Because of this, it has been expected of Bronny to play in the NBA as his father did.
In spite of the fact that this was the plan that LeBron and many other people had envisioned, things took a turn for the worse after Bronny suffered a heart arrest during college basketball practice and was transported to the hospital. Since then, he gives the impression of being stable and seems to be returning to his normal life gradually.
Up until this moment, there was very little room for debate among the supporters regarding Bronny’s participation in basketball. On the other hand, his most recent words give some cause for concern over his likely future in the NBA. Having said that, let us take a more in-depth look at what Bronny had to say and find out more information about the sport in which he is interested in competing.
Can Bronny James play in the NFL?
The same can be said of American football and the NFL, despite the fact that basketball and the NBA are extremely popular in the United States. Football, like basketball, is a sport that requires a significant amount of stamina in addition to a high level of physical talent. LeBron James was once regarded a football prodigy and may have been able to have a successful career in the sport had he chosen to do so instead of pursuing a career in basketball.
Bronny James has recently expressed an interest in playing football for the Trojans, just as his father did. For the benefit of those who are unaware, that is the name of the collegiate football team that he played for. Bronny further by saying that he was confident in his ability to read defenses and that he was capable of playing the quarterback position fairly well. He believes that, in combination with having a good shooting arm, this provides him a good enough chance to play professional football.
While we can certainly admire the passion that he is displaying, many fans were quick to point out that Bronny wouldn’t be able to handle the high level of impact and contact that comes with playing football. Even if he is able to play for the Trojans, a career in the NFL looks quite unlikely.
Even though we can tell that Bronny looks to be normal, his exact medical details and clearance for basketball training have not been made public. Whether it be football or basketball, we wish him the best of luck for his future.
