Errol Denis Mann (born June 27, 1941 in Breckenridge, Minnesota) is a former American football placekicker who played in the National Football League from 1968-1978. He was a member of the Oakland Raiders' Super Bowl XI winning team. When attempting kicks, he used the straight-on style which is now almost never used with placekickers.[1]
