Internships
Seasonal Internships
Internships vary throughout the league, and typically one to two seasonal internships are available per team. They often start in the spring and extend through the end of the NFL season. A seasonal intern's role will vary by team, but he or she typically is involved in duties on a daily basis, continually demonstrating ability to serve as a productive staff member. As interns progress, they gain more responsibilities relative to field setup and breakdown for practice and game days, taping staff duties and stretching responsibilities. They may help with rehabilitation protocols, provide support during practice, and pack and prepare trunks for away games. Mentoring and teaching in relation to football experience is also common. Contact individual teams to apply.
Training Camp/Summer Internships
Undergraduate students in the midst of AT programs can apply in the fall for open positions for each team, which begin in the summer. Teams rely heavily on summer/training camp interns for coverage of the larger number of players present. Interns can expect to be exposed to a variety of rotating responsibilities each week, including equipment setup and breakdown, taping and rehab to get them involved in different aspects of camp. Contact individual teams to apply.
