Chaka was called by NFL vice president of officiating evaluation and development Wayne Mackie on March 1.
“He goes, ‘Welcome to the National Football League,’ and I just went nuts,” Chaka said. “I asked him, ‘Hey are you punking me, you’ve gotta be kidding me,’ because I’ve been at for so long I just never thought the day would come. I just enjoyed working.”
In addition to officiating, Chaka works as a health and physical education teacher at Renaissance Academy in Virginia Beach, Virginia where she has been working with at-risk youth for the past 10 years.

Eagles News: Philadelphia has had contract extension talks with Derek Barnett’s agent
Philadelphia Eagles news and links for 3/6/21.
Let’s get to the links .
If the Eagles were in better cap shape, they might consider letting Barnett play this year for $10 million, then make a decision on his future next year when his contract is up, much like they did two years ago with their 2015 first-round pick, wide receiver Nelson Agholor. But they aren’t in good cap shape, and really can’t afford to be having Barnett taking up such a large percentage (approximately 6%) of their cap room. He had just 5 ½ sacks last year and was rated 36th out of 121 edge rushers in pass-rush productivity by Pro Football Focus. According to two league sources familiar with the situation, the Eagles have had discussions with Barnett’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus, about an extension, which would seem to indicate that their preference is to keep him.
