Casey Austin Keenum (born February 17, 1988) is an American football quarterback for the Los Angeles Rams of the National Football League (NFL). He was signed by the Houston Texans as an undrafted free agent in 2012. He played college football at Houston, where he became the NCAA's all-time leader in total passing yards, touchdowns, and completions.

In the 2008 college football season, Keenum ranked first nationally in total offense and second in total passing yards. As a result of his on-field contributions to Houston's success, Keenum was named to several All-American lists. He is the only quarterback in Division I FBS football history to have passed for more than 5,000 yards in each of three seasons. On October 22, 2011, Keenum became the Football Bowl Subdivision's all-time leader in total offense. On October 27, 2011, Keenum became the all-time leader in total touchdown passes by an FBS quarterback. During that game he threw for nine touchdowns and 534 yards.

Keenum threw for 1,760 yards and 9 touchdowns in the 8 games he started for the Texans, before being waived on August 31, 2014. Keenum was picked up by the St. Louis Rams the next day and was on their practice squad. He re-signed with the Houston Texans on December 15, 2014 after their starting and backup quarterbacks were injured. On March 10, 2015, the Rams traded a draft pick to the Texans for Keenum.
