Answer #1

If that’s your dream - ask coaches and other knowledgeable adults: What do I need to do to excel at (name of the position you play)? - do that and keep your grades up so you can get accepted at a good college to showcase your talents - know going in, very few make it, the odds are against you, so fight for it…I wish you every success !!

Answer #2

Im pretty sure that only 2.5% of college athletes go pro… You have to work year round, and dont smoke or drink…

Answer #3

At 13…your first, and biggest priority is making sure that you excel in your high school game. Then, if you also graduate & do well enough, you may get a full ride at a top teir school. Shine there, and then you might make it to the NFL.

At 13, you’re at least 5 years away from signing any kind of contract at all, and not even in high school yet :) Or shouldn’t be.

Answer #4

I haven’t got a clue what the chances are, I can imagine its quite competitive. Just try out for teams and you’ll get to higher and higher levels and see where it takes you.

Answer #5

of course your in high school at 13!
