VIDEO: Listen as Beth Mowins becomes first woman to call a prime time NFL game

ESPN’s Beth Mowins became the second woman to call play-by-play in an NFL game on Monday night as she led the broadcast of the Denver Broncos and Los Angeles Chargers game. She became the first woman to call a prime time game with the Monday Night Football appearance.

Also a college football broadcaster for ESPN, Mowins called Oakland Raiders’ exhibition games the past two seasons.

The first woman to call play-by-play for a televised NFL game was Gayle Sierens on Dec. 27, 1987. Sierens earned good feedback for her call of the Seattle Seahawks and Kansas City Chiefs game and was offered to call more NFL games. However, she was limited to the one by her full-time job as a broadcaster at a local NBC station, according to Sports Illustrated.
