Tony Dungy is one of the greatest head coaches in NFL history.
The Hall of Famer won Super Bowl XLI with the Indianapolis Colts, making him the first African American coach to win a Super Bowl. Dungy is not in the spotlight as much anymore, but he’s never shied away from discussing his faith.

It’s clear that Dungy knows a lot more than just Xs and Os on a clipboard.
Dungy clearly knows what is at stake in November, and wants the candidates to make sure they know what they’re talking about when it comes to discussing people’s faith.
It’ll be interesting to see what the vice president has to say in response.
