Kyle Tobin York (born July 5, 1982) is a former American football quarterback who played for the Mississippi State Bulldogs in 2002, 2003, and 2004, starting four games.
After redshirting the 2001 season, York expected to backup Kevin Fant in 2002. However, after Fant was suspended for the first game, York started for the Bulldogs in a 36-13 loss to Oregon. York got another start later in the season when Fant was injured and led the Bulldogs to a 29-17 win over Memphis.
York backed up Fant during the 2003 season, appearing in seven games as a backup. In 2004, under new head coach Sylvester Croom, York was again named the backup quarterback, this time to Omarr Conner. However, Conner was injured in a 51-0 loss to 2004 LSU Tigers football team, and York started the next two games, a 31-13 loss to Vanderbilt, and a 27-13 loss to UAB. York did not appear in any more games in 2004. He graduated from Mississippi State in December 2004 and did not return for the 2005 season, instead enrolling in seminary.
York is currently a pastor at Pinelake Church in Mississippi. He occasionally serves as a football expert on TV and radio sports shows.
