NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Titans are adding female football coach Lori Locust to their staff as a defensive assistant.
Locust is the first woman to be a full-time coach in Titans franchise history.
"Blessed to be joining the Titans as part of coach [Mike] Vrabel's staff," Locust said via a Twitter post. "Can't wait to get started on this next phase of my coaching career."
Locust was hired as the assistant defensive line coach for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2019, making her the first female position coach in the NFL and the third female full-time assistant coach.
