Jason Adam Dunn (born November 15, 1973) is an American former professional football player who was a tight end in the National Football League (NFL). He was selected by the Philadelphia Eagles in the second round of the 1996 NFL draft.[1] He played college football for the Eastern Kentucky Colonels.[2] After his playing career, he became a coach.
After playing for the Eagles for three seasons, Dunn missed the 1999 season due to a knee injury. He was then signed by the Kansas City Chiefs in July 2000.[3]
Dunn was primarily used as a blocking tight end for the Chiefs; former teammate Tony Gonzalez was the primary receiving tight end. On February 27, 2008, after spending eight years with the Chiefs, he was released by the team.[4]
