Question
Mike Vrabel won three Super Bowls with the Patriots as a player; now he’s trying to win one as a head coach. Who are currently the only two men who played in Super Bowls for winning teams and won Super Bowls as head coaches?
Answer
Mike Ditka and Tony Dungy. Ditka as a player won his Super Bowl with Dallas and was the head coach of the 1985 Chicago Bears. Dungy won a Super Bowl as a player with the Steelers and as a coach with the Colts. Two other Super Bowl winning coaches were backup quarterbacks for Super Bowl winning teams (not actually getting on the field for those games – Tom Flores with Kansas City in 1969 and Doug Pederson with the Packers in the ‘90s).
