CHAUTAUQUA, N.Y. (AP) ? Shannon Eastin could be the first of several female game officials in the league, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said. Eastin is a replacement line judge who will make her NFL debut in Thursday night's Green Bay at San Diego exhibition game. The regular officials are locked out by the league after their contract expired. Eastin is a referee in the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (FCS division) and also runs a company that trains officials in football and basketball.
