    Coughlin's first five seasons with the Jaguars were incredibly successful and they made it to the AFC Championship game twice. He was named NFL Coach of the Year for 1996.

However, he managed to lead them to two Super Bowl Championships after becoming the coach, both times coming against the New England Patriots.

    Following his time as head coach of the Giants, Coughlin was hired as senior advisor to the NFL's football operations department. And during halftime of a game between the Giants and Bengals at Metlife Stadium in November 2016, Tom was inducted into the Giants' Ring of Honor. He then returned to Jacksonville as executive vice president of football operations.
