Former NFL head coach Lindy Infante passed away at the age of 75 on Wednesday after what his wife described as a lengthy illness.
Infante, best known for his four-year stint as the Green Bay Packers head coach before Mike Holmgren took over in 1992, also coached the Indianapolis Colts in 1996 and 1997. In his six years as a NFL head coach, Infante led his teams to a winning record twice with one playoff appearance. He was the Colts head coach in the two years leading up to the Peyton Manning era.
A running back under the legendary Ray Graves at Florida from 1960-1962, Infante earned an All-SEC selection in his final season with the Gators and was inducted into the University of Florida Athletic Hall of Fame in 1988.
