Welter will complete an internship with the Arizona Cardinals then coach inside linebackers during the preseason training camp.
Cardinals coach Bruce Arians, who made the decision to hire Welter, said that gender shouldn’t come into play when it comes to coaching. “If you can make me better, I don’t care if you’re the Green Hornet, man, I’ll listen,” he told NFL.com.
