NFL's first female referee to take the field in preseason game

It's a male-dominated sport, but one woman is stepping in and making history in the NFL.

She will suit up on Thursday night as the NFL's first female referee.

Right now, the NFL is locked in a labor dispute with the referee's union.

She is a 16-year college officiating veteran.

She will make her big debut during the Green Bay Packers v. San Diego Chargers preseason game on ESPN.
