Look at the kernel source code: files with the extension .S
are in assembly. You could work on those files and try to
improve them. You could also search into bugzilla
( https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/ ) if you find some bug to fix.

Assembly is most often used for drivers: you could search
for missing drivers and try to implement them. Maybe this pages
about laptops could help you find some missing or buggy drivers:
https://wiki.freebsd.org/Laptops .

If anyone can give more precise information about how to
contribute in assembly language, I would find it interesting too.
