Prior to the Draft, the NFL announced the creation of the NFL Legends Youth Advisory Committee to assist and guide efforts to preserve and grow youth and high school football.
“I love the game of football and want kids of all ages to have the opportunity to participate in it,” said committee member and NFL Legend Willie McGinest, who attended Long Beach (Calif.) Polytechnic, the same school as Baltimore Ravens’ fourth round-selection Iman Marshall.
“I joined the NFL Legends Youth Advisory Committee to help young people learn the game in the right way, with the proper coaching and guidance,” said McGinest. “By playing the game, kids also learn not only about football, but so much more — accountability, teamwork, sportsmanship, discipline and responsibility. It’s about skills and lessons they too can apply for the rest of their lives.”
NFL Football Operations’ mission is to establish a culture of clarity, consistency and credibility in all aspects of the greatest game. Football is an essential piece of America’s fabric, uniting fans, players and communities with a simple yet powerful bond. We honor the game’s history while continuing to innovate and preserve the sport for future generations of fans, players, coaches, teams and officials.
