Mobile Virtual Player's (MVP) $8,000 football robots cost a whole lot less than hiring a professional athlete, but MVP President and CEO Joe McLaughlin doesn't see these robots replacing players anytime soon.

"When you run kickoffs, running 11 players down over and over again, it wears guys out," McLaughlin said on CNBC's "Closing Bell." The robots help "save wind, save legs. I don't think it actually runs that many reps from the guys fighting for a spot."
