San Francisco 49ers offensive assistant Katie Sowers has her eyes on an eventual head coaching job in the NFL.

"Absolutely," she said during Monday's Super Bowl Opening Night in Miami when asked if she could be a head coach, per Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk.

"Wherever I can impact the game, I will continue to work and to be the best I can be and if that opportunity comes up, and that's where I truly be a game-changer, that's the step I'll take," Sowers continued.

The Atlanta Falcons hired Sowers as an assistant who worked with wide receivers during the 2016 offseason and through training camp.
