This is an accepted version of this page Perry Fewell (born September 7, 1962) is an American football coach.
Fewell won Super Bowl XLVI as the defensive coordinator of the New York Giants, a position he held for five seasons.
Fewell was a college coach for 13 years (1985–1997), working as an assistant at North Carolina, Army, Kent State, and Vanderbilt.
In what was statistically their best season under Fewell, the 2008 Bills defense ranked 2nd in the AFC in negative yardage plays, recorded 7 games of holding opposing offenses to less than 100 yards rushing, finished 4th in the NFL in red zone defense (41.8%), and allowed just 14 passing touchdowns all year.
Following the season finale, the Bills fired their entire coaching staff, including Fewell.
After Tom Coughlin returned to the Jacksonville Jaguars as the executive vice president of football operations, Fewell was brought in to act as the defensive backs coach on Doug Marrone's staff.
