Tom Brady’s flag football game scheduled for Saudi Arabia later this month is almost certainly relocating amid ongoing military conflicts in the region, a source with knowledge of the situation has confirmed to the Daily Mail. Brady and a number of current and former NFL players were supposed to play in the Fanatics Flag Football Classic on March 21 in Riyadh. Meanwhile, a similar form of flag football is scheduled to make its Olympic debut at the 2028 Los Angeles Summer Games. Traditionally played in San Diego between ACC and Pac-12 schools, Holiday Bowl officials have considered moving the game to Saudi Arabia, FSO reported. Meanwhile, school officials at North Carolina and Colorado have both visited Saudi Arabia in hopes of getting NIL funding with which to recruit players.
