2023 NFL Announces All Teams Will Receive Participation Lombardi From Now On

NEW YORK, NY - Ending a successful 2022-2023 NFL season, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell announced that all 32 teams would receive participation Lombardis from now on.

"Congratulations to the Super Bowl champion New York Jets and all other 31 teams," said Goodell as he unveiled 31 shiny, golden Lombardis to thunderous golf claps from team representatives. "Whether you were 17-0 or 0-17, every team is a winner and will receive one of these prestigious participation Lombardis. Here you go, get these up in your trophy cases alongside all your other participation trophies for AFC Offensive Player of the Week and NFL Canada Day game MVP."

The NFL playoff system will also be adjusted to reflect the new...er, honored system, with all 32 teams once again making the postseason so no one feels left out. The NFL will award 12 teams with first-round byes as a reward for being good boys and playing hard every week and another 19 teams as wildcard teams just because it's fun. The 18th and 19th placed wildcard teams will be from the previous decade just to send the clear message that the NFL is super-progressive.

"Thank you to the beautiful city of Dallas for hosting the Draft-For-All so every team could get the best new players," Goodell concluded to wild golf claps. "Let's see who can beat the Dallas Cowboys' Trevor Lawrence, this year's 11th Annual I-Didn't-Actually-Win-It Rookie of the Year, and make sure to tune in to the all\-new, inclusive Super Super Wildcard Weekend powered by Tide with 15 teams from each conference. I'm a very good and fair commissioner."
