Donald F. "Don" Currivan (born March 6, 1920 in Mansfield, Massachusetts - died May 16, 1956 in Hyannis, Massachusetts) was a professional American football end in the National Football League. He played seven seasons for the Chicago Cardinals (1943), the Boston Yanks (1945–1948), and the Los Angeles Rams (1948–1949). Currivan also played for "Card-Pitt" in 1944, a team that was the result of a temporary merger between the Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
