John Owen Dutton (born February 6, 1951) is an American former professional football player who was a defensive lineman in the National Football League (NFL) for the Baltimore Colts and Dallas Cowboys.
He played college football for the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
Born and raised in Rapid City, South Dakota, Dutton attended Cathedral High School, where the football team was undefeated in his junior year.
After the school closed in the fall of 1968, he transferred to Central High School and led the Cobblers to the state Class A basketball title in his senior year (1969).
Dutton was a two-time All-state selection in basketball and football.
He received high school All-American recognition in both sports as a senior and was also an accomplished Discus thrower.
In 1971, as an alternate starter, he was part of the 1971 national championship team.
Dutton participated in the 1971 Nebraska-Oklahoma game, also called the "Game of the Century", generally considered one of the greatest college football games ever played.
As a junior, he was named the starter at defensive end, registering 67 tackles (second on the team).
As a senior in 1973 under new head coach Tom Osborne, he earned All-American and All-Big 8 honors.
He posted 71 tackles (fourth on the team) and 8 sacks.
In the Cotton Bowl in Dallas against the Texas, Dutton and the Blackshirts held the Longhorns to one field goal and 196 total yards or the Huskers' fifth bowl victory in as many seasons.
He also competed in the discus throw with the track team.
Dutton was the fifth overall selection of the 1974 NFL Draft, taken by the Baltimore Colts.
The 6-foot-7, 266-pound defensive end was ahead of his time and became an immediate starter at right defensive end, receiving NFL all-rookie honors at the end of the season.
He had 79 tackles, 5 unofficial sacks and one pass defensed.
In the three consecutive seasons in which the Colts won the AFC East title from 1975 to 1977, he was a starting member of a defensive front four who collectively called themselves the "Looney Tunes" and was also known as the "Sack Pack."
He led the Colts in sacks with a career-high 17, to go along with 73 tackles (second on the team) and one fumble recovery in 1975.
He had 3 sacks against the Kansas City Chiefs.
He was named to the first of three straight Pro Bowls, becoming one of the most dominant defensive lineman in the NFL.
In 1976, he led the team with 13 unofficial sacks and had 73 tackles.
In 1977, he appeared in 12 out of 14 games.
He had 6 unofficial sacks and 39 tackles.

He had 10 solo tackles against the Miami Dolphins.
Dutton began the 1979 NFL season as a contract holdout.
He and the National Football League Players Association (NFLPA) challenged the circuit's option clause by arguing that it was not perpetual.
He also demanded from the Colts a $1 million contract of which he would be paid $200,000 annually for five years.
He expressed a desire to leave the team primarily because of owner Robert Irsay, accusing him of spreading "too many lies" about him in Baltimore and further stating, "I don't think he cares about the team, it's just a toy to him."
He was traded from the Colts to the Dallas Cowboys on October 9, 1979.
Because of the retirement of Jethro Pugh and the desire of Ed "Too Tall" Jones to become a professional boxer, the Cowboys traded the first (#24-Derrick Hatchett) and second round pick (#51-Tim J. Foley) in the 1980 NFL Draft.
He appeared in 8 games, starting in the final 4 contests including the playoffs.
He registered 25 tackles and one unofficial sack.
When Jones returned in 1980, Dutton moved to left defensive tackle, playing behind Larry Cole.
He tallied 52 tackles, 3.5 unofficial sacks, 2 fumble recoveries and one interception returned for a touchdown.
In 1981, he was inducted into the University of Nebraska Athletics Hall of Fame.
In 1993, he was inducted into the South Dakota Sports Hall of Fame.
Although he received more scholarship offers for basketball, he opted to accept a football scholarship from the University of Nebraska to play under head coach Bob Devaney.
