Contents
It’s that time of year again. The NFL Combine is right around the corner, and here’s how you can register to participate.
Introduction
The National Football League (NFL) is the professional American football league in the United States, consisting of 32 teams. It was formed in 1920 as the American Professional Football Association before renaming itself the National Football League for the 1922 season. The NFL agreed to merge with the American Football League (AFL) in 1966, and the first Super Bowl was held at the end of that season; the merger was completed in 1970. Today, the NFL has 16 games scheduled during a 17-week regular season that runs from September to December, with each team playing 16 games and having one bye week. Following the conclusion of the regular season, seven teams from each conference (four division winners and three wild card teams) advance to the playoffs, a single-elimination tournament culminating in the Super Bowl, which is usually held on the first Sunday in February and is played between the champions of each conference.
