Dameyune Vashon Craig (born April 19, 1974) is a former professional American football quarterback in the National Football League for four seasons for the Carolina Panthers. He was most recently the wide receivers coach for the LSU Tigers.
Craig played high school football for Mattie T. Blount High School for legendary coach Ben Harris. He helped lead his team to two state championships in 1990 and 1992.
Craig played college football at Auburn University from 1993–1997, where he wore jersey number 16. He was redshirted for the undefeated 1993 season, during Coach Terry Bowden's first year, then served as the backup quarterback to starter Patrick Nix during 1994 and 1995 (and was MVP of the spring game). Occasionally during those two seasons he would enter the game at quarterback in place of Nix in goalline situations, where his running ability could be put to good use.
He was named Auburn's starting quarterback for the 1996 and 1997 seasons. He led Auburn to victory over Army in the Independence Bowl in 1996, setting Auburn offensive team record of 588 total yards in a 62-0 victory over Fresno State. He also prevailed over Clemson University in the Peach Bowl in 1997. In that ten-win senior season, he also led the Tigers to the SEC Western Division title and a berth in the SEC Championship Game in Atlanta. Despite a strong performance by Craig, Auburn lost the game to Peyton Manning's Tennessee Volunteers, 30-29.
