Mark DeWayne Moseley (born March 12, 1948) is an American former professional football player who was a placekicker in the National Football League (NFL) for 16 seasons. He played for Philadelphia Eagles (1970), the Houston Oilers (1971–72), the Washington Redskins (1974–86), and the Cleveland Browns (1986). A native of Livingston, Texas, Moseley played quarterback at Texas A&M University and Stephen F. Austin State University before switching to kicker for his senior season at Stephen F. Austin.
Selected by the Eagles in the 14th round of the 1970 NFL draft, he played one season with them and then two seasons with the Houston Oilers. He was out of football in 1973 before signing with the Washington Redskins in 1974, with whom he played until 1986. He won the NFL Most Valuable Player Award during the strike-shortened 1982 season. He is the only pure special teams player to win the Sporting News’ NFL MVP award and is one of only three non-offensive MVPs.
Moseley was released by the Redskins in 1986 and retired that year after a few games with the Cleveland Browns.
