It is due to that success that Doucette said that he hoped that he and his teammates were shot to compete for a place in the US team. UU. With the influx of professional soccer players who were also tested.
“The boys of the flag deserve their opportunity,” Doucette told Washington Post in a recent interview. “That is all we want. We feel that we work hard to bring the sport where it is, and then, when the NFL boys talked about it, it was as if we were being kicked aside. I felt that it was the guy who could speak for my classmates, for my brothers who have been working hard to reach this level, so that we do not forget.”
Doucette added that he believed that the team is good enough to win gold in Los Angeles.

“This is a sport that we have played for a long time, and we feel that we are the best and do not need other boys,” he told The Outlet. “But we all have a goal in mind, and that is to represent our country. We are definitely open to all competition. If those guys enter and come out and are better than us, it takes my hat off. Go to win that gold medal for our country.”
The national male team has won the World Championship five consecutive times.
The NFL owners unanimously approved the participation of players in Flag Football during their meeting last week.

“At the end of the day, I feel that I am better than Patrick Mahomes due to my game’s IQ. I know he is now the best in the league, I know it is more precise, I know he has all these intangibles, but when it comes to flag football, I feel that I know more than him,” he told TMZ Sports last year.
