The stronger argument for your point would be that local sportsnuttery used to unite communities. People got out of their house, away from technology, and managed enormous crowds to come together in a way that connected the city. A big part of what it meant to be FROM a place was to share the NFL connection with other local fans.
It sucks this is lost, but it was dying anyway with technology. And there was nothing inherent in the game on the field that united the people. I hope people can find more productive ways to feel rooted in their hometowns, though.
Maybe this will help spawn it. I was a yuge Bills fan as a kid and we would go to Rich Stadium and 80k people would scream their love for western NY, even as our region and economy was crumbling. It would be great to find a more productive use for 80k hardworking, hard-drinking white guys who passionately love the region.

I think XO is greatly overestimating the decline in popularity of the NFL. People at work still talk about it everyday with no reference to the shitlibbery and avidly play fantasy leagues.
NFL is a multibillion dollar enterprise, hundreds of thousands of kids play football and will be fans in adulthood.
Sports go through periods of growth and recession, we are just seeing a period of decline but it will come back strong as ever within a decade

Crafty Prole raised the great point that the NFL thing is HUGE, because it transcends a culture war.
Instead, it's an economic one. For the first time, whites united in sufficient numbers to stop contributing $$$ to the NFL.
I think it's a great first step.

yeah, first we had the trump phenomenon, a presidential candidate blowing a massive rhetoric dogwhistle at working class whites, then him actually fucking winning, which led to a loose movement of white populism coalescing around him, despite him probably not personally being on board with much of the white populist agenda...
and now this white working class rebellion against the massive, rich, Prince-of-Fucking-Darkness TV/cable/media/NFL cartel...and trump started it all...I doubt he did this on his own volition...this has the fingerprints of someone else on it...I dunno who...
but the slumbering giant awakes, breaking off the silver shackles of propaganda, with a growing awareness of his own power...perhaps

Natural consequence of identity politics - especially when it's not one political voting bloc but increasingly a mixture of any identity libs can reach for to exploit - gender, trans, muslim, black, hispanic, gay, etc.
Resources are limited and so is political capital - their precious identity politic groups necessarily have to be prioritized somehow.
There's also the virtue signaling aspect where when the new cultural status quo shifts leftward to some new degree of nonsensical policies and values - the same signals "progressives" have relied on are no longer that strong of a signal - oh you support gay rights and marriage equality? So does my 63 year old Christian conservative dad now too......
So naturally they'll have to keep reaching further and further left to find a signal of virtue and progressive status and naturally there's overreaching (and naturally they are all full of shit to begin with) and alienation within the victimization hierarchy of identity politics.
