Dan Fouts is an American former professional football quarterback, born on June 10, 1951, who played for the San Diego Chargers of the National Football League throughout his fifteen-season career from 1973 to 1987. After a relatively undistinguished first five seasons he came to prominence as an on-field leader during the Chargers Air Coryell period. He led the league in passing yards every year from 1979 to 1982, throwing for over 4,000 yards in the first three of them, and no quarterback had previously posted consecutive 4,000-yard seasons. He was voted a Pro Bowler six times and first-team All-Pro twice.
