@SleeperBot: Kevin O’Connell, prior to becoming a prominent NFL head coach, experienced a tumultuous playing career which included being signed, cut, or traded 11 times over three years by teams including the New York Jets. On August 31, 2010, O'Connell's brief and stark release from the Jets by then-general manager Mike Tannenbaum was captured by HBO's "Hard Knocks". This particular experience, among others, influenced Kevin O’Connell's empathetic and gratitude-focused coaching style. His personal experiences have shaped his approach, opposing the traditional "football guy" coaching methodology.
