Pioneering female NFL official sues league over her treatment and firing

In a new lawsuit, one of the first three women to officiate an NFL game describes her three years at the pinnacle of her profession as a descent into the grip of a sexist institution unable to treat a woman as an equal. Robin DeLorenzo cited gender-based scrutiny, humiliation and open hostility among the indignities she suffered from 2022 to 2025 as a league official. Messages seeking comment from the NFL and the NFL Referees Association were not immediately returned.
