The five most powerful women in the NFL

The best football league in the world cannot exist without women. Women are often behind the success of teams and athletes, making the sport recognisable, credible, and popular.

Even aus pokies do not forget the role of women in the sport. Gambling club operators are offering unusual bets on upcoming matches as well as adding themed slot machines to their collections.

Beth Mowins, commentator

Mowins began her career in college sports, but in 2005, she first took to the football pitch as a commentator broadcast nationwide. In 2017, she became the lead commentator for NFL games, working in tandem with an analyst. While Gail Sirens is considered the first female football game commentator, it was a one-time event that occurred 35 years ago.

Mowins has consistently demonstrated a high level of professionalism and has received positive feedback for her work. She has commented on preseason games for Las Vegas Raiders club television, participated in regular NFL games, made her debut as a commentator at NBA games, and also participated in commentating at the Tokyo Olympics.

Virginia Halas McCaskey, owner of the Chicago Bears

Virginia is practically the same age as the NFL itself. She inherited the Bears club in 1983 after the deaths of her father, the team’s founder, and her younger brother. Under her leadership, the Bears won Super Bowl 20. In the late 1990s, faced with a crisis at the club, Mrs. McCaskey handed over management to more experienced professionals but remains active in fan circles to this day. She continues to attend the club’s home matches, even in her 97th year of life.

Kay Adams, journalist

Kay Adams became known for her work as the host of Good Morning Football on the NFL Network, where she worked from 2016 to 2022. As a Chicago representative, she also hosted special events for the Bears team. Last September, Kay signed with FanDuel and now hosts the Up and Adams morning show on FanDuel TV. This show often features former and current NFL players. For example, it was there that Rob Gronkowski said that Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers should think about Super Bowls instead of MVP awards. By the way, Kay Adams is only her stage name. Her real name is renowned journalist Dorothy Konopka.

Sarah Thomas, judge

Thomas paves the way in the NFL for all other female referees. Her biography often includes the word first. She was the first woman to referee a major college game and the first to referee a college bowl. She was also the first full-time female NFL referee and the first to referee an NFL playoff game. Finally, two years ago, she became the first female referee to officiate the Super Bowl.

Brittany Mahomes, wife of Patrick Mahomes

Previously, Gisele Bundchen was the alpha woman in the NFL, but Brittany Mahomes, formerly known as Matthews, now takes that spot. This change is causing some controversy. Throughout her career, Gisele has never made scandalous statements that could cause a negative reaction among football fans.

In turn, Brittany, already for the first season, began to actively communicate with fans on social networks, react emotionally to the defeats of the “Cheefs,” and prefers to be at the center of attention. Given that her husband is a two-time NFL champion and isn’t going to stop there, these moments are going to happen more often.

Mina Kimes, journalist

In 2014, Kimes published an essay on the Tumblr platform about how the Seattle Seahawks helped her bond with her father. That piece served as her ticket to ESPN’s writing team. Initially, she analyzed the personalities of NFL players such as Aaron Rodgers, Darrelle Revis, Tarod Taylor, Antonio Brown, Baker Mayfield, and others. Over time, Kimes began appearing on television (currently serving as an analyst on NFL Live) and contributing to podcasts. She is currently one of the most quoted journalists covering the NFL.
