Earnin' It: The NFL's Forward Progress

Earnin' It: The NFL's Forward Progress

Earnin' It features the stories of women in the NFL who are breaking "grass" ceilings, from the field to the front office. Earnin' It will be hosted by the NFL's Senior Director of Diversity & Inclusion Sam Rapoport, a former professional quarterback who dreamed of creating a women’s pipeline to bring talented football minds into the game – which today has become a reality. The story of this forward progress will be told by NFL head coaches, owners, players, and of course, the women themselves. It's a story that hasn’t been told before - and one that will continue to unfold each day of the NFL season. Earnin' It is produced by iHeartRadio, Sam Rapoport and Jane Skinner Goodell.
