After ending a 12-year playing career in 1999, Manusky entered the coaching ranks in the National Football League.
After 12 years of playing linebacker for three different teams, including the Washington Redskins, the Minnesota Vikings, and the Kansas City Chiefs, Manusky began his coaching career as a volunteer training camp assistant for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2000, assisting his former Vikings defensive coordinator Tony Dungy with linebackers and special teams. His first full-time coaching position was in 2001, as he was hired as linebackers coach for the Washington Redskins under Marty Schottenheimer, who Manusky played for during his time on the Chiefs.
