Bill Parcells (born Duane Charles Parcells August 22, 1941 in Englewood, New Jersey) is the current Executive Vice President of Football Operations for the Miami Dolphins of the National Football League. He is also a former American football head coach, most recently with the Dallas Cowboys from 2003 to 2007. He is known as "The Big Tuna", a nickname derived from a team joke during his tenure as linebackers coach of the New England Patriots. Parcells won two Super Bowl rings with the New York Giants, in Super Bowl XXI and Super Bowl XXV. He announced his third retirement from football on January 22, 2007 before returning with the Dolphins in December of that year.
