Bill Belichick, Mike Vrabel Give Email Addresses To Women At NFL Careers Forum
BOSTON (CBS) -- As more women continue to get involved in NFL coaching, the Patriots are open to creating more opportunities.
On Thursday, Bill Belichick went so far to give out his email address to all of the women participating in the NFL's Women's Careers In Football Forum.
That's according to Sam Rapoport, the NFL's senior director of diversity and inclusion, who tweeted that Belichick and his former player/current Titans head coach Mike Vrabel both made themselves available to any women looking to get involved in coaching staffs.
Mind blown.
