Drew could have played another ten years! Might get one over 40 yards. All kidding aside, can't be easier to catch, with the innovative gloves, wonder if its to offset everyone's one handed catches we see every week on ESPN, who knows, its just dumb

Fumbles would go down. Plus it would be a b!tch to punt and hit FGs with 😝

It's not real. It's nothing more than promotional tool to generate interest. It appears to have worked by creating a buzz.

Directv will also be broadcasting every Thursday game in restaurants and bars and such for free.

"Additionally, Amazon has reached an agreement with DirecTV to show the games in "more than 300,000 sports bars, restaurants, hotel lounges, retail shops and services, and many other venues nationwide," according to a DirecTV press release. "

Re: Amazon Unveils New NFL Ball Engineered Exclusively For Thursday Night Football

Several reasons this wouldn't fly (pardon the pun), among which only teams playing on Thursday Nite would have skewed stats with respect to the rest of the league.

It's interesting how easily Amazon got the internet buzzing with their little 'joke'. Some folks are literally decrying the "Death of the NFL" with the stunt. LOL
