I'm 30 years old and my height is 5'9. I'm military at this time; however, my time in the military is ending this year. I'm in excellent condition and extremely strong for my size. I currently have the running speed to potentialy play at the NFL level. I'm very competitive. I am skilled on both offense and defense, with defense being my strong side. I have a strong passion for the game.

There are 32 teams. Write to them.
You are old for a rookie, but it cost them nothing to try you out at rookie camp. (You are an undrafted free agent.)
Google each team and ask to be invited to their training camp.
If 31 teams say "No thanks" but one say "OK" then you succeeded.

Are you joking? Sorry, but there is no chance of you NFL dreams.
A)Your age is a hindrance b/c most retire at about 34
B)Your height. Your just too short for defense and I highly doubt you could manage at you height on offense, unless you were a RB, and even then I think its a scarce idea b/c it takes a lot of quick insight.
C)Condition or not, you haven't played in college, euro league, canadian, or any farm teams! Experience of some sorts is required in order to even get looked at!
D)Only a combine coach or scout could be the judge of your NFL potential.
E)I'm proud you have passion, but your probably just going to have to be an aggressive fan!

Well since we don't know your 40 time, bench, squat etc. it is hard to tell. But buy your build, 30 yrs old, 5-9, your best chance of getting a position is Kicker. But i would say that as 1-10,000

Not to burst your bubble you're old in terms of NFL players, and most try-outs are invite only so meet someone with connections for that shot. Even then if you didn't play colllege ball your chances are slim

sounds like u r in good condition. but its hard to make it into any league. how fast do you run the 40? how much can you bench? thats what the scouts will look for. then, you have to consider an agent to help you out. depending on what position you want to play, you have a fairly good potential. try getting your name out there, calling some people that could help you or so.

sorry man but this isn't "invincible", nfl teams almost never hold tryouts unless their kicker gets hurt or they're the houston texans(they had a tryout toward the end of this past season)

You should try for arena football first. If you're good enough you might get noticed by an NFL scout. Even if you do, you're not guaranteed to get picked up.

you have a chance as a walk on. but your chances are some where between slim and none of making the team.
