Chad Johnson suggests old school vs. new school overhaul to Pro

  • What to do with the Pro Bowl is a question that has plagued the NFL. The "event" has become a largely non-contact affair, in which players (rightly Laremy Tunsil Jerseys ) do everything they can to avoid injury in a live game situation.

    There's absolutely no incentive for players, who just came off a 17-game season and a failed Ka'imi Fairbairn Jerseys attempt to reach a Super Bowl, to put any effort into it.

    As the league reportedly considers ways to make the Pro Bowl more watchable, it appears a fun solution has emerged courtesy of former NFL receiver Chad Johnson Phillip Dorsett II Jerseys .

    Johnson, who has been raring to play football again for some time, proposed a solution that could placate fans of multiple fans of multiple generations, keep players safe, and let him back on the gridiron. It's a win-win-win.

    Tavierre Thomas Jerseys The NFL has tried time and time again to crack the Pro Bowl code, and this just might work. It's unlikely the Pro Bowl -- or any Tyrod Taylor Jerseys iteration of it -- becomes appointment television. But locking Johnson up against Jalen Ramsey could at least be somewhat fun to watch.

    The Davis Mills Jerseys NBA All-Star game found succe s by creating a target score that led to some compelling basketball, whereas MLB's All Star Game gets players close to fans in a way the Pro Bowl simply doesn't.

    Johnson, a six-time Pro Bowler himself, would be a solid addition to the game. He could join up with Terrell Owens, another wide receiver who would undoubtedly love to be back on an NFL field. Owens, currently playing in the Fan Controlled Football league Isaac Yiadom Jerseys , is a six-time Pro Bowler himself.

    Still, the answer may be doing away with the event altogether and try to figure something else out.
