Walt Michaels, who was the head coach of the New York Jets for six seasons and was the team's defensive coordinator on the franchise's only Super Bowl championship team died Wednesday at age 89.
His daughter Mary Ann told the Times Leader that her father died six years to the day that his wife Betty died.
Michaels also played in the NFL for 12 seasons as a linebacker and was selected for the Pro Bowl five times. He was selected in the seventh round of the 1951 draft by the Cleveland Browns but was traded to the Green Bay Packers before the season.
