Paul Edward Crane (born January 29, 1944, in Pascagoula, Mississippi) was a professional football player.
The 6-2, 208lb center and linebacker came out of Vigor High School in Pritchard to play for Bear Bryant and the University of Alabama. Crane played in the NFL for the New York Jets from 1966 to 1972. He lead the league in 1968 for safeties, and in 1969 in non-offensive touchdowns and interceptions returned for touchdowns. He still holds the title for career safeties in the American Conference with 65.
