They say if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself—and that’s exactly the mindset young Pittsburgh Steelers fan Lucy Callery embraced when she attended the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis this week.
Taking her football scouting responsibilities seriously, Lucy took a half-day off school and traveled all the way from Kentucky to spend two full days at the combine. But what really set her apart from other fans? She came fully prepared—with her own stopwatch in hand.
A Future NFL Scout in the Making
Lucy’s dedication didn’t go unnoticed. Her father shared a photo on social media of his daughter timing the prospects herself—a moment that quickly gained attention online.
NFL Network even featured Lucy and her father in the broadcast, cutting to the pair in the stands as commentators Daniel Jeremiah and Rich Eisen marveled at her commitment to the scouting process.
Not only did they applaud her passion, but they also made a bold prediction:
“She might be back here one day—not as a fan, but as an NFL scout.”
Given her focus, preparation, and clear love for the game, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Lucy Callery on the sidelines or in a front office one day, evaluating future NFL talent.
