National Football League 100th Anniversary All-Time Team

Okay kiddo, so the National Football League (NFL) is a big sports league where teams from all over the United States compete against each other in a game called football. This year is a very special year because it's the 100th anniversary of the NFL! To celebrate this, the NFL is making an "All-Time Team".

Now, the All-Time Team is a list of the best football players from the past 100 years. People who really know a lot about football got together and decided which players should be on the team based on how good they were at playing.

They looked at things like how many touchdowns the player scored, how many yards they ran, how many interceptions they caught, and a bunch of other important things that make a player really great.

So now there will be a special announcement on TV where they'll show all of the players who made the team. It'll be like a big celebration of all the amazing football players who have played in the NFL over the years. It's kind of like putting together a big puzzle of all the best players ever!
