Being the position coach for a two-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback who is destined to be a first-ballot Hall of Famer is a lot like being tourism director for Hawaii. It doesn't take a lot of work to do your job well.
Mike Sullivan has had the good fortune of being in that position not just once, but twice, in his 17-year NFL coaching career.
He was the quarterback coach for Ben Roethlisberger's 18th and final season with the Steelers in 2021. And he was the quarterback coach (and later offensive coordinator) for Eli Manning when he was with the New York Giants during two separate stints between 2010 and 2017. Roethlisberger and Manning were each taken in the first round of the 2004 draft. Each player won two Super Bowls.
