The Oakland Raiders will be making history on Friday night in the broadcast booth where Beth Mowins will become the second female play-by-play announcer in NFL history.
Mowins, who does play-by-play work for ESPN in nearly every sport including college football, will make the call on the local Bay Area broadcast of the Raiders-Chiefs preseason game, according to the Associated Press. It will later be broadcast on the NFL Network.
From the AP:
“I think most football play-by-play announcers would love to have that opportunity so certainly I’ll try to make the most of it,” said Mowins, who has been calling college football games on ESPN for a decade.
