We all know that having two former NFL players in our small community is a huge asset to the development of our sons and today’s announcement just underscores this fact. Merril has joined Roger Goodell, the NFL commissioner, on the board of directors of USA football.
USA Football conducts more than 80 football events annually across the country for its members in all 50 states, offering education for coaches and game officials, skill development for players and resources for youth football league commissioners.Â
This is just further commitment to the sport and more importantly youth athletics. Merril and Cris Collinsworth have both been active with Fort Thomas youth football (as mentioned in a previous post) and Merril’s association with USA Football can only be a further asset.
