The incredible offer to LeBron James that is not from an NBA team: The NFL wants him!

The future of LeBron James is a hot topic in the NBA right now as there is a good chance that he moves on from the Los Angeles Lakers after a frustrating couple of seasons.
Rumors have been swirling about which NBA team he could end up joining as he would be a huge marketing pull for anyone, let alone what he can do on the court.
As it turns out, the Cleveland Browns are plotting a slightly tongue-in-cheek way of getting LeBron to drop basketball altogether and embrace his old interest in American football.
Rodney McLeod Jr. has made a pitch to LeBron urging him to come back to his hometown and back to where it all started, as he played football when he was a youngster but opted to pursue basketball instead.
“We could use somebody to complement [David] Njoku over there,” he said.
“The only problem is, I’m not sure if LeBron is actually ready to take on a guy like a Myles Garrett just yet, put his hand in the dirt. So, we’re going to have to save LeBron for third downs, red zone, passing situations. So, there might be some tells on offense, but it’ll be worth it.”
The assumption is that the Browns do not actually think they can get LeBron to change sport, and given he is now 40 years old, the physicality of American football may not be the right thing.
VIDEO: Concerned Fans Think Something Is Seriously Wrong With Travis Kelce Because Of His Strange Actions After Chiefs Win vs. Raiders

On Friday, the Kansas City Chiefs and Travis Kelce won a nailbiter against the Las Vegas Raiders, surrounded by much controversy.
The score was 19-17, and it was far from a pretty win for the now 11-1 and defending Super Bowl champion Chiefs.
Kelce might not have been happy with how Kansas City walked away with the win.
After the final whistle, he was filled walking back to the locker room, and he was not his usual cheerful self after a big win.
Many social media users do not think there might have been more at work than being upset about the game’s outcome. “Maybe yes he’s a little annoyed by the people in front of the camera,” said one comment.
“When you date someone like Taylor swift you will always get pissed with everyone….he mad maybe someone said something bad,” said another.
“That side-eye says it all,” wrote a third.
“I wouldn’t be a happy camper either if I almost lost to the 2-10 raiders,” a fourth said.
“Well considering the way they won, I’d be mad too,” added another.
“It looks like Travis is in some kind of uncomfortable situation. Maybe he’s upset for no particular reason and is in a hurry,” another stated.
“He missed a block on the 3 and 2 play at the end of the game that would have essentially ended the game. Worthy scores or is tackled around the two yard line. This is almost certainly what he is frustrated about,” someone pointed out.
Travis Kelce Had A Solid Game Against The Raiders
There’s no doubt that Kelce is having a down year, which makes sense, considering he’s now 35.
However, he had a very productive game against the Raiders, reeling in seven receptions for 68 yards. Unfortunately, though, he ran a wrong route in the endzone, which, if done correctly, could have ended in a touchdown.
Kelce heating up is exactly what Kansas City needs now that the playoffs are approaching.
