LeBron James was reportedly given a contract from a couple of different NFL teams. The Los Angeles Lakers will be starting the NBA season on October 20th against the Golden State Warriors. This is going to be an interesting start to the season as the roster is looking quite a bit different than it did last year. Fans will be excited to see how the different parts of the are able to mesh together.

But an interesting story came out yesterday that revolved around LeBron James potential NFL career. He was a huge football star in high school. He was even the MVP for one season.

James talked about an NFL contract that he was offered.

“Jerry Jones offered me a contract and actually Pete Carroll in Seattle did as well during out lockout time. Definitely got my blood flowing again, got my mind racing again about the game of football,” James talked on ESPN yesterday. “We was able to get a deal done in the NBA and I was back on the court in not time, but I definitely thought about it.

“I still got the jersey too, that Jerry [Jones] and Pete Carroll sent me from 2011.”

Ahead of the season, it is going to be interesting to see how Russell Westbrook is able to fit in with the Lakers offense. Will he continue to go for his stats?

“Being from LA, you always wish that you could play for your home team,” Westbrook said. “That’s definitely something that always circled around in my mind. Maybe one day? But I always would come back and be like, ‘Ah, that probably won’t happen.’ I just had to wait and see. But now that we’re here, I’m going to take full advantage of it.”

“LeBron is one of the best players to play this game, and his ability to do everything on the floor allows me to just figure it out,” Westbrook said. “I’m coming to a championship-caliber team, and my job is to make his game easy for him, and I’ll find ways to do that. As it pertains to ball-handling, it really doesn’t matter. There’s many different ways you can impact the game without having the ball in your hands. I’ve been able to do that for a number of years, and we’ll figure it out.”
