Super Bowl 60: British NFL coach Aden Durde 'builds his legacy' by masterminding Seattle Seahawks' defensive masterclass

Aden Durde became the first British coach to win a Super Bowl title as the Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator helped inspire their 29-13 victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday as he continues to "build his legacy".

Durde's No 1-ranked scoring defense sacked Patriots quarterback Drake Maye six times, returned one of two interceptions for a touchdown and stole a fumble in a dominant display in Super Bowl 60.

Durde started his playing career in the UK before competing in NFL Europe with the Scottish Claymores and Hamburg Red Devils, as well as enjoying spells on the Carolina Panthers and Kansas City Chiefs practice squads.

He would later spend six seasons as defensive coordinator of the London Warriors, become the founder of the NFL's International Player Pathway programme before moving into the league's coaching ranks, landing as DC with Seattle this season after stints on staff with the Atlanta Falcons and Dallas Cowboys.
