President Biden he said that when he was younger, he didn’t dream of being president, but playing in the NFL. Norah O’Donnell, presenter and editor of “CBS Evening News,” spoke with Mr. Biden in the network’s first news interview since its launch. inauguration.
“I had wild dreams,” Mr. Biden said. “I didn’t have to be president. I thought I could be a winger in the NFL.”
Mr. Biden served as a receiver at Delaware High School. His coach, E. John Walsh, told The New York Times in 2008 that Mr. Biden was “one of the best pass receivers I’ve had in 16 years as a coach.” He also played freshman football at the University of Delaware.
O’Donnell asked him this as a previous receiver, which of The Sunday star quarterbacks would you rather play with: forty-three-year-old NFL legend Tom Brady, or Patrick Mahomes, the current 25-year vice president?
“Obviously Brady is a great quarterback,” Biden said. “It looks like Muhammad has a lot of potential. And so I’d probably like to do a shot with the young guy I didn’t expect so much from.”
“Are you thinking Kansas City bosses can win?” O’Donnell asked.
“Well, I didn’t say that,” Mr. Biden said. “I don’t know who will win. I think they’re both great quarterbacks. One is just a younger version, potentially, of an old great quarterback. He’s not old. In terms of the NFL.”
