Hall Of Fame NFL Coach Endorses GOP Minn. Senate Candidate Tafoya

That position served as a gateway to a head coaching job with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers beginning in 1996.

Since he has ties to Minnesota, his endorsement could lend significant weight to Tafoya’s campaign, even though Adam Schwarze, whom she is running against for the GOP nomination, has received the Republican Party’s endorsement.

“Our state needs principled leadership, and that’s why I support Michele Tafoya for the United States Senate,” Dungy continued in his video.

“I know she’ll represent the people of Minnesota well.”

The runoff is Aug. 21.
