Kevin Scott Fagan (born April 25, 1963) is a former American football defensive end who played seven seasons (from 1986 to 1993) for the San Francisco 49ers of the National Football League. Fagan was regarded as one of the best run stopping defensive linemen in professional football, until several injuries including back, shoulder, and knee issues forced him to retire following the 1993 season. In 1990, Fagan earned second team UPI all-pro honors. [1]

Although he was drafted in 1986, he didn't make his official debut until 1987 for San Francisco.

Fagan was one of the NFL's strongest men, having recorded a Miami school record 560 pound bench press. [2]

Fagan graduated in 1981 from John I. Leonard High School in Lake Worth, where he played football and track and field. He played college football at the University of Miami and is a member of the UM Sports Hall of Fame.[3]

Fagan is now a football coach for Dunnellon High School in Dunnellon, Florida, and previously coached softball there.

Fagan was also named head softball coach of the College of Central Florida.[4]

Fagan's daughters Kasey, Sami and Haley play collegiate Division I softball.
