The NFLโs Lombardy Trophy is named after Vince Lombardi, the former coach of the Green Bay Packers.
Vince Lombardi held several coaching jobs throughout his career, including as an assistant with the New York Giants and Army.ย
However, his most famous role was as coach of the Packers, where he led Green Bay to victories in Super Bowl I and Super Bowl II.
Back then, it was just called the NFL Championship. But after Lombardi died in September 1970, the trophy was renamed in his honor.
