David Carl Mann (born June 2, 1932 in Berkeley, California) is a former professional American football punter. He played college football at Oregon State University and was drafted in the 7th round of the 1954 NFL Draft by the Chicago Cardinals in the National Football League. He played for the Cardinals for three seasons as a punter, running back, and a special teams member. Then he went to the Canadian Football League where he played for the Toronto Argonauts. When released in the start of the 1969 season, he played soccer for the Bramalea Satellites, being called back to the Argos as if the Bramalea team was a taxi squad.[1]
