How many Texas A&M Football Alums have won the Super Bowl?
Texas A&M, despite recent failures on the field, possesses a rich history of player development that has consistently translated to the NFL ranks. While stars such as linebacker Von Miller, wide receiver Mike Evans, and safety Armani Watts are the most recent Super Bowl winners in the past decade, plenty of future opportunities for several active Aggies lie ahead.
With Super Bowl LVIII just a day away, the Kansas City Chiefs look to secure their third Championship in the last five seasons vs. the NFL Champion San Francisco 49ers. Representing Texas A&M in the big game, 49ers linebackers coach Johnny Holland will take on said role, looking to earn his second Super Bowl after securing his first as a player for Green Bay during the 1993 season.
Now, what could have been… Suppose the Detroit Lions had defeated the 49ers in the NFC Championship game just two weeks ago. In that case, we’d discuss three Aggie alums including head coach Dan Campbell, defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn, and wide receiver Josh Reynolds.
So, ahead of Sunday’s festivities, here is every Texas A&M Football alum who has earned a Super Bowl ring in their NFL playing/coaching career.
