Eagles make Raiche highest-ranking female executive in NFL history

The Philadelphia Eagles announced a number of personnel changes to their football operations department on Thursday, including the hire of Catherine Raiche as vice president of football operations.

With the promotion, Raiche becomes the highest-ranking female personnel executive in NFL history, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

The Montreal native was hired by the Eagles in 2019 as a football operations coordinator after five years in the CFL.

Raiche was the assistant general manager for the Montreal Alouettes in 2017 before moving to the Toronto Argonauts in 2018 as their director of football administration.

The 32-year-old takes over the role previously held by Andrew Berry, who was named the general manager for the Cleveland Browns last year.

Philadelphia also hired former Jacksonville Jaguars GM David Caldwell with the title of personnel executive.
