Buffalo Bills hire #NFL's first full-time female coach: http://q13fox.com/2016/01/20/buffalo-bills-hire-first-woman-to-full-time-coaching-position-in-nfl-history/ … #Q13FOX
BUFFALO, N.Y. — The Buffalo Bills announced Wednesday that it had named Kathryn Smith the team’s special teams quality control coach — the first female to be named to a full-time coaching position in NFL history.
The Arizona Cardinals had earlier hired a woman, Jen Welter, as an assistant coaching intern for training camp and the preseason to work with inside linebackers. But she was not named to a full-time coaching position.
“Kathryn Smith has done an outstanding job in the seven years that she has worked with our staff,” Bills head coach Rex Ryan said in a statement on the Bills website. “She certainly deserves this promotion based on her knowledge and strong commitment, just to name a couple of her outstanding qualities, and I just know she’s going to do a great job serving in the role of Quality Control-Special Teams.”
