Dan LeFevour
Daniel Terrence LeFevour (born March 19, 1987) is an American former professional football player who was a quarterback in the Canadian Football League (CFL). He was selected in the sixth round of the 2010 NFL draft by the Chicago Bears and spent time with three other NFL teams (without appearing in a regular-season game) before entering the CFL in 2012. Before his professional career begun, he played college football for the Central Michigan Chippewas. Known as a dual-threat quarterback, LeFevour previously held the record for most touchdowns scored (e.g., by passing, running and catching the ball) in the history of the NCAA, with 148 touchdowns scored. Case Keenum surpassed that record in 2011.
LeFevour graduated from Benet Academy in Lisle, Illinois in 2005. He started his high school career as the freshman team running back. Due to injuries at quarterback on the freshman team Dan stepped up in the final game and led the team successfully as their signal caller. After success at quarterback, he joined the varsity team his sophomore year. LeFevour became the full-time starting quarterback midseason. He continued on to start both his junior and senior years and was named the Offensive Player of the Year during his senior campaign. During his career at Benet, he threw for 2,929 yards (3rd most in school history), and completed 173 passes, 24 for touchdowns. His senior season, LeFevour passed for 945 yards and 7 touchdowns while compiling 634 rushing yards and 13 rushing touchdowns. LeFevour broke the all-time touchdown record for Benet with 54 scores in his career. He was named to the ESCC All-Conference team his senior year, and was also recognized as honorable mention all-state.
On February 4, 2011, LeFevour had his number 11 jersey retired at Benet, becoming the first football player to have that honor.
LeFevour led Central Michigan University to three Mid-American Conference championships in his four years and finished in the Top 25 in the nation in the final January 2010 AP Poll and USA Today Coaches Poll from the 2009–10 season. As a freshman and sophomore he led CMU to a bowl victory and a last second bowl loss in two Motor City Bowl games, drawing record crowds of 54,113 and 60,624 fans in December 2006 and 2007. He was named the bowl game's MVP as a redshirt freshman. Dan was one of 35 players named to the Manning Award Watch List in August 2007. He was named Mid-American Conference West Division Player of the Week for two consecutive weeks in October 2007, and again in the second week of November. LeFevour also garnered USA Today's Player of the Week for the week of October 16, 2007. On December 1, 2007, LeFevour became the second player in Division I FBS history to pass for over 3,000 yards and rush for over 1,000 yards in a single season (Vince Young was the first). On September 12, 2009, at Michigan State, LeFevour passed Byron Leftwich to take over as the MAC all-time leader in total offense in a career. He currently holds Mid American Conference records for career completions, attempts, passing yards, passing touchdowns, total touchdowns, and total offensive yards. LeFevour is the only player in NCAA history with over 12,000 passing yards and 2,500 rushing yards and currently sits 2nd all time in total offensive yards. He was responsible for 150 total touchdowns, placing him in second place among FBS quarterbacks.
LeFevour was selected by the Chicago Bears in the sixth round (181st overall) of the 2010 NFL draft. He struggled through the 2010 preseason, completing 19 of 41 passes (46.3%), with 204 pass yards, one touchdown, one interception, six sacks, and 38 rushing yards. Chicago signed veteran Todd Collins to be the third-string quarterback, and waived LeFevour after the 2010 preseason in hopes of placing him on the practice squad.
LeFevour was claimed off waivers by the Cincinnati Bengals the next day, and spent the 2010 season as the third-string quarterback, but did not see any action. He was waived on September 4, 2011, but was signed to the practice squad the next day. On September 6, he was released from the practice squad in favor of quarterback Zac Robinson, formerly of the Detroit Lions.
LeFevour was signed to the Indianapolis Colts' practice squad on November 8, 2011.
On November 25, 2011, the Jacksonville Jaguars signed LeFevour off of the Colts' practice squad. He was released by the team on May 7, 2012.
