Female Soccer Star Receives Offer To Kick For The NFL

US women’s soccer star Carli Lloyd may end up getting another chance to kick a ball, but this time in the NFL. As Fox News reports:

Could Carli Lloyd’s NFL dreams become a reality?

The World Cup champion was offered a chance to kick for an NFL team during the final week of the preseason, Lloyd’s trainer James Galanis told Fox Sports on Monday.

Lloyd told Sports Illustrated on Friday she has “definitely gotten some inquiries” from NFL teams after a video of her nailing a 55-yard field goal at a joint practice session between the Philadelphia Eagles and Baltimore Ravens went viral.

She added the videos ignited some “interesting chatter” about women potentially playing in the NFL.

Will Lloyd end up fulfiliing her NFL dreams? It looks like we might found out this fall.
