The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have become the first NFL franchise to appoint two full-time female coaches.
Lori Locust joins as assistant defensive line coach and Maral Javadifar as assistant strength and conditioning coach.
Locust has previously served as an intern with the Baltimore Ravens, while also working with Alliance of American Football team the Birmingham Iron and National Arena League side the Lehigh Valley Steelhawks.
Javadifar was working as a physical therapist in Seattle after completing her sports physical therapy residency at Virginia Commonwealth University.
Head coach Bruce Arians said: "I know how hard it can be to get that first opportunity to coach at the highest level of professional football.
"Sometimes, all you need is the right organisation to offer up the opportunity."
