As a quarterback, Greg Landry also competed for the Chicago Bears and the Detroit Lions in the NFL.

Landry's NFL career lasted from 1968 to 1984. He was a member of the Baltimore Colts as well.

Landry entered the coaching ranks after his playing career, first in 1985 with the Cleveland Browns before moving on to the Bears where he served as the offensive coordinator from 1988 to 1992.
