Michael Edward "Mike" Shanahan was born on August 24, 1952 in Oak Park, Illinois. He attended Eastern Illinois University where he played as a quarterback. However, during a practice in the 1970's, he hit an injury which caused his heart to stop for around 30 seconds that almost led him to his death. That injury permanently halted his career as a professional footballer. This led him to enter coaching.

In the past, Shanahan has worked as a coach, assistant coach, administrator, and coordinator for the University of Oklahoma, Northern Arizona University, Eastern Illinois University, the University of Minnesota, the University of Florida, Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Raiders, San Francisco 49ers, and San Francisco 49ers (2010-present).
