Kevin Tyree Dyson (born June 23, 1975 in Logan, Utah) is an American football wide receiver in the National Football League most recently with the Washington Redskins and is also known as The Music City Miracle Man. Dyson is the older brother of New York Jets cornerback Andre Dyson. He attended Clearfield High School, in Clearfield, Utah, where he helped his team when the State 5A championship.

Dyson played for the Tennessee Titans from 1998 to 2001. In the 1999 playoffs, he was involved in the two most memorable plays in franchise history. Dyson was the recipient of Frank Wycheck's disputed lateral known by many as the Music City Miracle, and he was tackled by Mike Jones "one yard short" of scoring the tying touchdown as time expired in Super Bowl XXXIV, known simply as The Tackle.

Dyson played for the Carolina Panthers in 2003 but saw very little action due to injury. He did appear briefly in Super Bowl XXXVIII. The San Diego Chargers acquired Dyson for the 2004 season, but Dyson was unable to play. In 2005 he signed with the Washington Redskins but was cut on September 3 when teams reduced their rosters to the final 53 players. He finished his 6 NFL seasons with 124 receptions for 1,500 yards and 11 touchdowns in 59 games.

Dyson now still lives in Nashville, TN and helps kids.
