'''Donald Lee Beebe''' (born December 18, 1964) is an American [[college football]] coach and former [[wide receiver]]. He is the head football coach for [[Aurora University]], a position he has held since 2019. He previously played in the [[National Football League]] (NFL) for nine seasons, primarily with the [[Buffalo Bills]]. In addition to his six seasons with the Bills, who selected him in the third round of the [[1989 NFL draft]], he was a member of the [[Carolina Panthers]] during their inaugural season and played for the [[Green Bay Packers]] in his last two seasons.

A member of the Bills teams that lost four consecutive [[Super Bowl]]s, Beebe achieved recognition for preventing an opposing touchdown by forcing a fumble in [[Super Bowl XXVII]], despite the Bills facing an insurmountable deficit. He made two further Super Bowl appearances with the Packers and was part of the team winning [[Super Bowl XXXI]]. Beebe pursued a coaching career after retirement and was hired as Aurora's head football coach in 2019.

==Early life==
Beebe is one of five children of Don and Barb Beebe.<ref name="football.dailyherald.com">{{Cite web |last=Oberhelman |first=Dave |date=November 21, 2012 |title=Beebe brothers a winning combination at Aurora Christian |url=http://football.dailyherald.com/article/20121121/sports/711219701/ |url-access=subscription |website=Daily Herald |location=Arlington Heights, Illinois}}</ref> He attended [[Kaneland High School]] in [[Maple Park, Illinois]] where he lettered in [[basketball]], [[Track and field|track]] and [[American football|football]], graduating in 1983.<ref name="football.dailyherald.com" /> After attending [[Western Illinois University]], he transferred to [[Chadron State College]] in Nebraska, where he set several school football records his senior year and ran a 6.3 60-yard dash on the indoor track team.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Mitchell |first=Fred |date=February 9, 2013 |title=Beebe knows how often major college recruiters miss prospects |url=http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2013-02-09/sports/ct-spt-0209-mitchell-chicago--20130209_1_andre-reed-40-yard-dash-western-illinois |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130424015346/http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2013-02-09/sports/ct-spt-0209-mitchell-chicago--20130209_1_andre-reed-40-yard-dash-western-illinois |archive-date=April 24, 2013 |access-date=October 9, 2021 |website=Chicago Tribune}}</ref>

In his sole season with Chadron State, Beebe caught 49 passes for 906 yards and rushed 10 times for 81.  He became the first player in school history to score a touchdown in every game, while also setting single-season school records for most all-purpose yards (1,661), points scored (90), and touchdowns (15).  In 2000, Beebe was inducted into Chadron State's athletic hall of fame.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Don Beebe (2000) - Chadron State College Athletic Hall of Fame |url=https://chadroneagles.com/honors/chadron-state-college-athletic-hall-of-fame/don-beebe/158}}</ref>

Beebe was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the third round (82nd pick overall) of the [[1989 NFL draft]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=1989 NFL Draft Listing |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/1989/draft.htm |access-date=May 26, 2023 |website=Pro-Football-Reference.com |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=1989 - Round 3 |url=http://www.nfl.com/draft/history/fulldraft?season=1989#round3 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080419222954/http://www.nfl.com/draft/history/fulldraft?season=1989 |archive-date=April 19, 2008 |access-date=October 9, 2021 |website=NFL.com |publisher=National Football League}}</ref> He posted impressive statistics in speed and agility drills at the 1989 pre-draft combine.<ref name="latimes1989">{{Cite news |last=Wojciechowski |first=Gene |date=October 15, 1989 |title=He's Making Beeline to Recognition: Bills: Buffalo wide receiver Don Beebe has caught NFL defensive backs off guard with both his speed and ability |work=[[Los Angeles Times]] |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1989-10-15-sp-337-story.html |access-date=December 19, 2013}}</ref>

In his nine NFL seasons, Beebe caught 219 passes for 3,416 yards, rushed for 28 yards, returned 81 kickoffs for 1,735 yards, and scored 25 touchdowns (23 receiving, one kickoff return, and one fumble recovery). He appeared in five Super Bowls as a player: [[Super Bowl XXVI|XXVI]], [[Super Bowl XXVII|XXVII]], and [[Super Bowl XXVIII|XXVIII]] with the [[Buffalo Bills]] (missing [[Super Bowl XXV|XXV]] due to injury) and [[Super Bowl XXXI|XXXI]] and [[Super Bowl XXXII|XXXII]] with Green Bay. While Buffalo lost its four consecutive title games, Beebe ultimately won a Super Bowl with the Packers in XXXI.<ref name="v645">{{cite web | last=Verderame | first=Matt | title=Super Bowl memories: Don Beebe wins with Packers, hurts with Bills | website=FanSided | date=2017-02-02 | url=https://fansided.com/2017/02/02/super-bowl-memories-don-beebe/ | access-date=2024-10-31}}</ref>

Beebe is well known for making one of the most memorable plays in Super Bowl history during XXVII against the [[1992 Dallas Cowboys season|Dallas Cowboys]]. In the game's fourth quarter, Cowboys [[defensive tackle]] [[Leon Lett]] recovered a Bills [[fumble]] and advanced the ball toward the end zone. However, Lett began to celebrate prematurely by holding the ball out to his right side. Although the Bills were losing 52–17 at the time, a relentless Beebe streaked down the field and knocked the ball out of Lett's hands just before he crossed the goal line.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Jackson |first=Kevin |last2=Merron |first2=Jeff |last3=Schoenfield |first3=David |title=100 Greatest Super Bowl Moments: #11 All hustle |url=https://www.espn.com/page2/s/superbowlmoments25.html |access-date=October 9, 2021 |website=ESPN Page 2}}</ref> The loose ball went through the end zone and out of bounds for a [[touchback]] and prevented a Dallas [[touchdown]], which would have given them a Super Bowl-record 58 points, plus (presumably) an extra point kick. Beebe also caught two passes for 50 yards, including a 40-yard touchdown reception from [[Frank Reich]] earlier in the game.

Beebe played one season for the [[Carolina Panthers]] in 1995 before finishing his career with the Packers. With injuries ravaging the Packers' receiving corps in 1996, Beebe ended up being the Packers' second-leading receiver, with 39 receptions, 699 receiving yards, 4 touchdown receptions, as well as the only kickoff return touchdown of his career.

His standout game came in an overtime battle against the San Francisco 49ers, where Beebe had 11 receptions for 220 yards and one touchdown in a 23–20 Packer victory. The most controversial play of the game occurred when Beebe stumbled and fell after catching a pass from Favre. Beebe got up and ran the ball in for a 59-yard touchdown. Replays show that he was tagged by [[Marquez Pope]] and should have been ruled down, but referees missed the call and video review was not available that year.<ref>{{cite web | last=McKillop | first=Andrew | title=Green Bay Packers: 5 Most Memorable Games Against the San Francisco 49ers | website=BleacherReport | date=2010-12-03 | url=https://bleacherreport.com/articles/534369-green-bay-packers-the-five-most-memorable-games-against-the-sf-49ers | access-date=2024-11-09}}</ref>
