“First Take” co-host Stephen A. Smith said Thursday that women, in some capacity, should “be coaching at every level in professional sports.”

“I believe particularly with the bevy of issues that the NFL has endured and suffered from over the past two years, I believe there should be a female on every single NFL squad as a coach in some capacity,” Smith said of the Buffalo Bills’ hiring of special teams coach Kathryn Smith.

“I don’t think it should be completely and unequivocally dominated by males. I wouldn’t mind seeing an assistant on every team in the National Basketball Association,” he continued. “The fact of the matter is there’s several male coaches in the WNBA. There’s several male coaches, coaching women’s basketball at the collegiate level.”

“Why shouldn’t females be coaching at every level in professional sports?”
