The Washington Redskins are reportedly adding Jennifer King to their coaching staff, a move that would make King the NFL's first female African American full-time assistant coach.
As first reported by The Athletic's Rhiannon Walker, King will soon join Ron Rivera's offensive staff. She had previously spent time with Rivera in Charlotte as a wide receivers coaching intern with the Panthers in 2017 and throughout the past two summers, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
King will become the fourth female full-time coach in the league, following the Buccaneers' assistant defensive line coach Lori Locust and assistant strength and conditioning coach Maral Javadifar, along with 49ers offensive assistant Katie Sowers.
