Jim Tomsula shaved mustache, lost weight at insistence of family
Jim Tomsula cultivated a new look during his year off from coaching.
Tomsula served as coach of the San Francisco 49ers in 2015 but was fired following a 5-11 season. During his time off, his wife and kids suggested he change up his look.
“My wife said, ‘Man, you look old and scraggly. Get that off,’” Tomsula said after a minicamp practice during the week, via The Washington Post. “Her and the daughters. I said, ‘Ok, let me shave that off.’ She said, ‘And by the way, you’ve been fat for 20 years. Lose some weight.’ So I got on a diet and shaved my mustache. I’m not dyeing my hair though.”
Tomsula now looks slimmer and a lot different without the mustache. He will be in his first season as defensive line coach for Washington. That’s the same role Tomsula had with the 49ers from 2007-2014 before he was promoted to head coach.
