Cap Edwards

Cap Edwards

Cap Edwards, born Howard Eugene Edwards (1870- ??), was a National Football League coach and player in football's earliest years. In the early 20th century, football in America was just beginning to catch on, with professional teams popping up in numerous cities, and at the time college football was more popular.

Edwards attended and graduated from the University of Notre Dame, where he played football as an offensive lineman. His professional coaching career did not begin until he was 51 years of age, and was shortlived, but nonetheless noteworthy as he coached in the pioneering days of football with such greats as Jim Thorpe and Guy Chamberlin. He first coached the Canton Bulldogs in 1921, which ended in a 5-2-3 record. In 1923 Edwards coached the Cleveland Indians, with a 3-1-3 record, followed by a 5-8-1 record as coach of the Cleveland Bulldogs.
