Former NFL player Mike Singletary is now a well-known coach. Football fans are looking for connections between him and Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary. Many wonder if Devin is Coach Singletary's child and if that is part of what makes him such a gifted football player.
However, there is no obvious family relationship between them. While Devin is a native of Deerfield Beach, Florida, and the son of Sabrina Clark and Devonn Sr., Mike was born and bred in Houston, Texas, by Rudell and Charles Singletary.
There is no evidence of the two ever even interacting, despite the fact that both Mike and Devin Singletary have played in the NFL and are significant in different ways.
The two are completely unrelated and were brought up in different places and decades apart. While Devin is still a young professional running back, Mike is an iconic Chicago Bears linebacker who was part of the legendary '85 Bears defense.
Devin Singletary's background as a young running back
Devin Singletary was the top division I FBS player in 2017 for combined running and receiving touchdowns, points scored, rushing touchdowns, and rushing yards as a pro sophomore.
The youthful and aspirational Devin declared his intent to enter the 2019 NFL Draft in December 2018. At that point, he was sixth in FBS history in terms of rushing touchdowns.
The Buffalo Bills selected Devin Singletary as the 74th-overall pick of the 2019 NFL Draft.
Who is Mike Singletary?
Houston, Texas is where Mike Singletary was born. He was a college linebacker for the Baylor Bears when he began his career.
The Chicago Bears selected him in the second round of the 1981 NFL Draft. He had an 11-year NFL career with the Chicago Bears, earning the moniker "Heart of the Defense." He began his coaching career in 2003 and has served as head coach for a number of organizations. Teams include the Memphis Express, Trinity Christian Academy, and the San Francisco 49ers.
Matt Singletary, Mike's son, failed to make it to the NFL. Instead of turning pro, he changed direction and entered the entertainment sector. IMDb indicates that Matt is currently a writer and an actor.
Mike Singletary's nephew, Vantz Singletary, is currently the only documented blood relative the former has in football. Vantz is the defensive end coach at Tennessee State University.
