Zac Taylor is a first-time NFL head coach for the Cincinnati Bengals, and he has turned the team into an annual contender. Taylor spent the previous 14 years going around the league and college scene to find some opportunity to coach a team. After stints in various settings, the Bengals finally gave him a shot in 2019, which has helped him build a net worth of $4 million. In this post, though, we're looking at Zac Taylor's wife Sarah Sherman.

Who is Zac Taylor's wife Sarah Sherman?

Sarah Sherman is actually also close to football, just like her husband. Her father is Zac's colleague and former Green Bay Packers coach, Mike Sherman.

Interestingly enough, their connection started around 2006, when the pair were attending the University of Nebraska together. Taylor was the star quarterback, even though it was his third college after spending one year each at Wake Forest and Butler. Sherman was going after a master's degree in marketing but also working for the sports information department as a graduate assistant.

Zac Taylor and Sarah Sherman's romance

Zac Taylor actually shared a part of their love story in an interview for Sports Illustrated. He stated:

I remember the first time I saw her. We were practicing on our soccer field at Nebraska. When practice ended, there was a girl in a yellow dress. She looked so much more mature, I figured she was probably 30 years old. I’m only 22. As the year went by, I learned we were the same age. I would run into her more often, and I realized maybe I had a chance.

The pair also gave an interview to Modern Luxury, where they also stated many things about their personal lives and how they met. The first reaction of Sarah when she saw Zac was that he was “a hunk,” and Zac really did not believe he had a shot right away.

In the interview, he also disclosed that just because he was the starting quarterback for the college team, he still did not have much of a chance at first.
