In a new social media post, Reese, who has made a name for herself as a working woman, revealed that she would be taking on another job on top of her already busy schedule.
Her podcast show, Unapologetically Angel, spilled the beans, explaining that the Chicago Sky star player would join Team Kai in the Super Bowl LIX Flag Football game hosted by YouTube.
However, Reese, who's quite the competitor, won't be showing off her athletic ability. Instead, she's taking over as the team's coach.
"Tune in to see if I bring home the dub," the caption read.

Fans Praise Reese For Grabbing Another Job
Online, netizens chimed in to share their thoughts about the news that Reese would coach YouTube's upcoming Super Bowl flag football game.
Someone wrote, "Yo, she really does everything," seemingly acknowledging the star athlete's plethora of endorsement deals.
"She stays winning," another wrote.
"Angel "keep-a-bag" Reese," a third fan commented.
However, it wasn't all love. Some users clapped back, insisting that Reese cared more about being in the public eye than becoming a better baller.
"Further proves what I've been saying," they wrote. "She's a d-mn influencer, not a basketball player."

Since the WNBA's off-season began, Reese has been seen at more and more events.
In addition to fashion shows, music festivals, and "Wild 'n Out" episode filming, Reese has also found time to attend different sporting games.
Throughout September and October 2024, Reese attended several NFL games, most notably matchups that included some of her favorite teams, the Chicago Bears and the Baltimore Ravens.
As the weather started to turn, the 22-year-old shifted her league of choice to the NBA. One courtside appearance of hers that turned heads was her December 23, 2024, outing to the Boston Celtics competition against the Orlando Magic. But why?
Fans noticed that at every sporting event Reese attended, the home team won the game.
In December 2023, while supporting the Magic, an online user noted that her "undefeated attendance" streak would end after seeing the Celtics' lead over the Magic. However, by the end of the matchup, the Magic had come back to defeat the league's current champions 108-104.
After Orlando secured the win, Reese posted a hilarious message on X.
"What's my record now?" she asked her 600,000 followers.

Another reason fans are impressed with Reese is because her resume continues to grow. In addition to deals with Beats by Dre, Reebok, Reese's, and now, YouTube and NFL, the basketball player also secured a historic deal with the world's largest fast-food chain, McDonald's.
The "Angel Reese Special," a quarter-pounder burger topped with barbecue sauce and bacon, will be available for purchase at the Golden Arches beginning February 10, 2025.
Something that makes this meal collaboration so special, though, is that it's the first national meal partnership the company has ever inked with a female athlete.
“McDonald’s has always been a big part of my life," Reese said in a statement. "It’s really a dream come true to be the first-ever female athlete to have my own meal and be a part of McDonald’s amazing basketball legacy. I hope the Angel Reese Special inspires young athletes everywhere to never give up on pursuing their dreams.”
