Carli Lloyd could have a job waiting for her in the NFL if she wants it.
The United States star stopped by Philadelphia Eagles practice on Tuesday and showed off some impressive leg strength.
The 37-year-old nailed multiple field-goal attempts on NFL uprights with plenty of room to spare on each attempt.
Lloyd successfully converted a 55-yard attempt, according to the Eagles.

And to her credit, she did not hit an upright, which is more than many NFL kickers can say.
