Mike Ditka played and coached American football.
After he retired as a tight end for the Dallas Cowboys in 1972, Mike Ditka was one of Tom Landry's assistant coaches from 1973 to 1981. He left in 1982 to become the head coach of the Chicago Bears. One of Ditka's great contributions as a Cowboys coach was suggesting in 1975 the revival of the shotgun formation, in which the quarterback takes a snap from center several yards behind the line of scrimmage. The Cowboys used the shotgun formation primarily in third down situations, and it enabled quarterback Roger Staubach to better recognize defensive moves. The Cowboys' modified shotgun formation quickly gained popularity among the other National Football League teams, and it is currently used throughout the league.
