Herman Edwards Jr. (born April 27, 1954) is an American football coach, sports analyst, and former cornerback who is the head football coach at Arizona State. He played in the National Football League (NFL) for ten seasons, primarily with the Philadelphia Eagles. Edwards was also a head coach in the NFL from 2001 to 2008 with the New York Jets and Kansas City Chiefs. Following the conclusion of his NFL coaching career, Edwards was a football analyst at ESPN from 2009 to 2017. He returned to coaching in 2018 when he was named the head coach of Arizona State's football team. As a player, Edwards is known for scoring the game-winning touchdown off a fumble recovery in 1978's Miracle at the Meadowlands. During his NFL coaching tenure, he reached the playoffs four times, three with the Jets and once with the Chiefs. His most successful season was in 2002 when he led the Jets to AFC East division title, which is the most recent win by the franchise. Edwards became popular as a coach and broadcaster for short, punchy declarations dubbed "Hermisms" by fans. The message "You play to win the game!", delivered by him during a Jets press conference, would become the title of Edwards' self-help book.
