TUCSON, Ariz. – The
Jedd Fisch 'Be A P.R.O.' Coaching Clinic adds two-time Super Bowl Champion former general manager Michael Lombardi to the list of guest speakers March 24-25.
Michael Lombardi was general manager of the New England Patriots from 2014 to 2015. He served as general manager and vice president of the Cleveland Browns from 2013 to 2014 and was in an executive role with the Oakland Raiders (1998-2007), Philadelphia Eagles (1998), Cleveland Browns (1987-1995), and a scout with the San Francisco 49ers from 1984 to 1987. Lombardi began his career in football as a recruiting coordinator with UNLV (1981-1984).
In his first Super Bowl appearance in 1984, Lombardi served as a scout for the San Francisco 49ers, a team that would win Super Bowl XIX, led by quarterback Joe Montana, fullback Roger Craig, and linebacker Ronnie Lott, the 49ers defeated the Miami Dolphins 38-16. He won a second Lombardi Trophy as an assistant to the coaching staff with the New England Patriots after defeating the Seattle Seahawks 28-24 in Super Bowl XLIX in 2014. The Patriots were led by quarterback Tom Brady, former Wildcat tight end Rob Gronkowksi, and wide receiver Julian Edelman.
Lombardi joins an impressive list of current and former NFL coaches, including Super Bowl XXXV-winning Head Coach Brian Billick, three-time NFL Coach of the Year Mike Smith, who was defensive coordinator with the Buccaneers, Jaguars, and Head Coach of the Falcons. Smith helped the Ravens win Super Bowl XXXV as a member of Billick's coaching staff.
