The NFL is not having a great week from a PR standpoint. (Or a great couple of years, really, to be charitable.) But while the league office and ownership go back and forth on their policy regarding the national anthem, it’s important to remember the best thing about the NFL: the players.
And some of those players (rookies, to be exact) were tasked with drawing their team’s logo in just sixty seconds, a sort of Cranium/Pictionary test that most were destined to fail. (Drawing is hard!) But most of the results were fun, as was the process itself, documented by this video. So, for once, please enjoy some non-problematic* NFL content.

Some of those weren’t bad! Some of them were very bad, but I failed art in 7th grade, so who am I to judge? And a minute isn’t a very long time at all for something like this! My favorite team is the Bears, and in one minute I don’t think I could even come up with a passable version of their stylized “C” logo, much less try to draw the Dolphins or Falcons in that length of time.
It’s tempting to think the NFL held this video back in a “Break Glass In Case Of Emergency” situation. “Quick, unleash the rookies in the fun hats!” Did it work? Not really. But it was still fun.
