Donald Clement Klosterman (January 18, 1930 – June 7, 2000) was a professional football executive. Regarded as one of the most accomplished in the sports’s history, he is known for building teams in three different leagues after his career as a professional quarterback was cut short by a serious accident that left his legs partially paralyzed. In the 1960s, Klosterman helped the American Football League (AFL, 1960–1969) overtake the National Football League (NFL) during the bidding wars that led the older league to seek a merger with the AFL. In the 1970s, he was a successful general manager for the NFL's Baltimore Colts and Los Angeles Rams, and in the 1980s he signed All-American quarterback Steve Young to a record contract for the Los Angeles Express in the United States Football League (USFL).
