David Craig Reavis (born June 19, 1950) is an American former professional football offensive lineman who played in the National Football League (NFL) from 1974 to 1983. He earned two Super Bowl rings with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
In 1983 Reavis helped evacuate United Airlines Flight 200 at O'Hare International Airport. After an engine exploded during takeoff, he "ripped open the exit door, stowed it to one side", and led other passengers out of the Boeing 727, a fellow passenger said.[1]
