Considering all of the talent that comes into the NFL year in and year out, it only makes sense for the league to attempt to form some kind of developmental league.
During an SiriusXM NFL radio interview, former New York Giants head coach Jim Fassel hinted at the possibility.

Obviously, the NFL and Roger Goodell won’t entertain such an idea if profit isn’t in the venture, but since fans often fiend for football all year around, I believe a development league would create tons of buzz.
