Carli Lloyd Received Offer to Kick in NFL Preseason Game After Viral Video

United States women's national soccer team star Carli Lloyd was offered the chance to suit up for an NFL team during a preseason game, her trainer told Fox Sports' Martin Rogers.

"[Today], she got another call from another NFL team," James Galanis said. "The one that called today, I don't want to say who it is, was willing to put her on the roster for their next [game]. They were willing to put her on the roster."

Galanis added Lloyd turned down the opportunity since the USWNT has a friendly Thursday against Portugal as part of its post-2019 Women's World Cup victory tour.
