Aaron Douglas Kyle (born April 6, 1954) is a former American Football cornerback in the National Football League for the Dallas Cowboys and the Denver Broncos. He played college football at the University of Wyoming and was drafted in the first round of the 1976 NFL Draft.
After graduating from Cass Technical High School in 1971, he accepted a scholarship to play for Wyoming University.
Kyle played safety until his senior season, when he was moved to cornerback and was used on either side of the field. He received All-WAC honors, played in the 1975 Blue–Gray Football Classic, the Senior Bowl and the East–West Shrine Game. He left as the school's career leader in tackles (275).
In the 1976 NFL Draft, he became only the second Wyoming player ever to be drafted to the NFL in the first round and the first defensive back ever to be selected by the Dallas Cowboys that high.
Early in his career he contributed on special teams, something that he would maintain during his time with the Cowboys, even winning some weekly awards for his performance.
