Dan Kreider (born March 11, 1977 in Manheim, PA) is the starting fullback for the NFL's Pittsburgh Steelers. He entered the league in 2000 when the Steelers signed him following the NFL Draft in which he was not selected. After playing on the practice squad, he was signed to the active roster on October 17, 2000, to replace Jon Witman, who had been injured. He remained on the active roster for the remainder of the season and was named Steelers Rookie of the Year. He has maintained his starting position for each of the past five years. He played running back and linebacker for the PIAA powerhouse Manheim Central. He played college football at the University of New Hampshire. Kreider rarely handles the football on running plays, but instead usually blocks for the runningbacks on the team. While not receiving as much attention as runningbacks, his blocks are essential to support the Steeler's power running game.
