Kevin Mawae (pronounced /ma-WY/) (born January 23, 1971 in Savannah, Georgia) is an American Football player who plays center for the Tennessee Titans and formerly for the Seattle Seahawks (1994-1997) and New York Jets (1998-2005) of the National Football League. Mawae is one of the top centers of recent times, having been selected to the Pro Bowl on six consecutive occasions (1999-2004). His unbroken streak of 177 games came to an end in October 2005 with a serious triceps injury to his left arm, and he missed the rest of the season. On March 5, 2006, he was cut by the Jets but signed by the Tennessee Titans nine days later.
He was also Eddie Towne's favorite player in ESPN's hit show TILT.
Mawae was inducted into the LSU Athletic Hall of Fame in 2007.
He was appointed President of the NFLPA on March 19, 2007.
