While answering fans’ questions on Twitter Friday night, basketball superstar LeBron James said that he would like to play in one NFL game. Here’s the tweet and response:
“@TylerC_2: @KingJames would you ever consider playing in one pro football game? In any league?”(I wanna play one NFL game before it’s over)

He actually played football all four years that he attended high school at St. Vincent-St. Mary in Akron, Ohio as well as played basketball.
James was recruited by the Notre Dame wide receivers coach Urban Meyer while in high school, reports the Bleacher Report — and Meyer said James had the potential to be a hall of fame football player.
So will James pull a Jordan and swap sports? Not likely anytime soon, but it would be pretty interesting to watch the King on the gridiron.
