Los Angeles Rams to make history with two male cheerleaders at Super Bowl vs New England Patriots

Both men made their debut last August for the Rams and now they are appearing at the biggest sporting event in America

The 2019 Super Bowl is all set for 3 February with the Los Angeles Rams battling the New England Patriots.

However, the biggest sporting event on the planet will welcome a world first: two male cheerleaders are set to appear for the Rams.

Quinton Peron and Napoleon Jinnies will make history on 3 February when the Rams attempt to win their first Super Bowl since 1999.

Never before has the 'greatest show on turf' seen male cheerleaders and this caps a meteoric rise for the pair in their inaugural year in the NFL.

Fresh after making their debut last August, Jinnies tweeted his excitement at the game-changing move.

He revealed: “Still can’t believe I’m one of the first males in history to be a pro NFL cheerleader!

"Everyone’s support and love has been insane! Thank you and GO RAMS!”

The Washington Wizards in the NBA have male cheerleaders too and it seems like a shift in the perception of American sports.

Jinnies and Peron will be cheering against the Patriots and their legendary quarterback Tom Brady.

Brady has been to the biggest game in American sports eight times during his storied career and has five Super Bowl rings to show for his efforts.

But after losing to the Philidelphia Eagles last year, the 41-year-old will be more motivated than ever to write his name into the history books.
