If you didn't know, Tony Dungy played for the Steelers in the late 70's during the Super Bowl years as a 2nd string CB. Here is a quote from a website about Art Rooney "The Chief", Steelers owner until his passing in 1988. It is a little outdated but...
Tampa Bay's coach Tony Dungy, who played for the Steelers from 1977-78, has a similar memory. "When I got traded to San Francisco, Mr. Rooney sent a letter to my mom saying how proud he was to have had me on the team. I was only a backup there for a short time, but that letter was thrill for my parents. He did that kind of stuff all the time."
Pretty cool, huh? I just thought it was. Dungy may just be the next coach to win the Super Bowl. I think Tony is like that too, a people-person.

I just heard a new interview with Tony Dungy on the radio yesterday. He says he wants to keep coaching, he's not done yet. He wants to win a couple more Super Bowls. He spends time with his family and has a prison ministry which he may develop further after football. Anyway, he just came out with a new book, but I forget the title.
