Dungy had an incredible run in the NFL from 1996-2008, winning a Super Bowl with the Colts in February 2007 and being named NFL Coach of the Year twice. He’s currently a member of the Ring of Honor for the Buccaneers and Colts.<\/p>\n

Off the field, Dungy has been just as impactful. He and his wife Lauren have been huge advocates for foster care for nearly three decades. In fact, they’ve adopted eight children over the course of their relationship.<\/p>\n

On Thursday morning, Dungy let people know that he’s celebrating his wedding anniversary.<\/p>\n

“Today my beautiful wife Lauren and I celebrate our anniversary. God started us in Pittsburgh, took us to Kansas City, Minneapolis, Tampa, Indy, and even to Eugene Oregon,” Dungy wrote<\/a>. “Our journey started with two people and has grown to 14 but through it all Christ has been at the center. We thank Him for the blessing of marriage and a family and we thank Him for watching over us the entire time.\u00a0Happy Anniversary Lauren.”<\/p>\n
