Participants include the top-graded player prospects that were released from NFL training camps
Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment Company (“HOFV” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: HOFV, HOFVW), the only resort, entertainment and media company centered around the power of professional football and owner of the Hall of Fame Village powered by Johnson Controls in Canton, Ohio, today announced the initial free agents participating in the inaugural NFL Alumni Academy (the “Academy”), the NFL Alumni Association’s player development program that takes place at the Hall of Fame Village powered by Johnson Controls.
This year’s class includes unrestricted free agent player prospects who were among the final cuts in NFL training camps. The NFL Alumni Association's personnel department, which is made up of NFL-experienced and NFL veterans, assigned grades to all of the released players and selected those who received the highest ratings for the first Academy class. Among the participating players include:
The participants will have the opportunity to further develop their games by being coached and trained by some of the top minds in professional football. Under the tutelage of former NFL coaches and players Mike Tice, Anthony Munoz, Steve Smith, Jay Hayes, Chuck Smith, Moe Williams, Jermon Bushrod, Dean Dalton and Performance Coach Chip Smith, the trainees will work on improving their strength and conditioning, techniques and skillsets, and situational awareness with the goal of preparing their bodies and minds for a lengthy career in the NFL. If a player is promoted to an NFL roster, another free agent will be invited to join the Academy.
“We are pleased to welcome this year’s NFL Alumni Association’s player development class to the birthplace of football – Canton, Ohio,” said Michael Crawford, President and CEO of HOFV. “Like the players who will be working on developing their games, we will continue working to develop the next phase of the Hall of Fame Village powered by Johnson Controls as well as original content to grow our media division. We believe the Academy provides a unique way for us to do that, as the popularity of Hard Knocks and Last Chance U shows that fans crave original programming that is centered on football and offers exclusive access to the players beyond the field.”
Seven of the free agents who are participating in the Academy shared their thoughts on the unique opportunity to further develop their games and gain exposure to the NFL and its fans in the process:
Diversity will always be a key component of the Academy program, and its composition will directly reflect the wide range of individuals that it serves. The Academy includes a Football Diversity Development program that works to advance minority former NFL players that are transitioning to coaching and other professional football positions. This initiative is designed to create professional career opportunities for many NFL Alumni Association members.
