Tony Dungy: You couldn’t play better football than he played today. -On NBC

Hall of Fame coach Tony Dungy will work NBC 's on-site studio for the network's coverage of Thursday night's Cowboys game at the Minnesota Vikings.

A free agent out of the University of Minnesota in 1977, he had a brief playing career for the Pittsburgh Steelers and San Francisco 49ers as a defensive back before going into coaching with the Steelers in 1981.

That's where he found his niche. He was a two-time NFL "Coach of the Year" winning 148 games in 13 seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Indianapolis Colts.
