Trivia for November 13, 2024

Question

Packers-Bears play this week, and they’ve had some notable names over the years. Bart Starr, Forrest Gregg and Mike Ditka all made the Hall of Fame as players for those teams, then doubled down and coached them. Who are the only other two men who have played in the Super Bowl era, been named to the Hall of Fame as players, then gone on to become the head coach for at least a season for the same team where they achieved greatness as players?

Answer

Art Shell (Raiders) and Mike Munchak (Oilers/Titans). There’s the line in the question about coaching “for at least a season;” that’s to account for safety Larry Wilson, who was a Hall of Fame safety with the Cardinals. Wilson was an interim coach for the St. Louis Cardinals in 1979 for 6 games.
