Jen Welter has made history agian. Welter, who became the first woman to play professional football in 2014 with the Indoor Football League’s Texas Revolution, has been hired by the Arizona Cardinals to work with the team’s inside linebackers during training camp. She is thought to be the the first first female coach in NFL history. Though, Vince Lombardi may have used a female defensive coordinator in the early 60’s. (Citation required.)
